I recently had the privilege to present to and learn from educators across the state at Missouri Council for the Social Studies! #lifelonglearner #educationmattters #historymatters #schoolsmatters

On my recent work trip, I spent time collaborating with great people from across the state, and also got to shake the hand of former Chief Justice Breckenridge, who really influenced me on how I teach!

I had the wonderful opportunity to present to MO and KS teachers at the MO/KS Council for History Education conference on (visual) thinking routines using ideas from @SmithsonianEdu #saam, Harvard's Project Zero, and other strategies. The @TheWWImuseum is a wonderful venue!

[St. Clair R13 @StClairR13]

This year, we launched a weekly newsletter called the Bulldog Brag to keep staff members informed about the important happenings throughout our district. We've decided to expand this communication tool beyond our staff by sharing it with parents and community members.
