<div dir="ltr">I contacted Jordan Sonnenblick to inquire about the possibility of a half-day visit since the $2,200 + expenses is a bit beyond my budget.

Here is the pricing information that the author provided:</div><div><br></div><div><div>"If you wanted me to split the day between two schools, and do two presentations per school, the rate would be $1,500, plus half of the day’s expenses, for each school. (The rate for each school is more than half of my usual $2,200 because I would be doing 2/3 of a day’s work at each building.)</div><div><br></div><div>As a general rule, I find that my expenses in the Chicago area tend to run around $350-$425 per day.
