Just finished reading former Wellington School Assistant Head and alum Laura Cooke @cookelohio authored chapter in “How we Flourish Volume 1.” Great content about flow and thanks, Laura, for shoutout for Wellington. I hope this is the first of many insightful publications!

I had a great time chatting with Charlie. Check it out.

Our latest interview is with Charlie Frankenbach, an English teacher at @HotchkissSchool. Charlie reminds us that great teaching happens when a teacher and his students give and take in a spirit of caring to frame life’s biggest questions. Read more here: https://t.co/JVOLM845fW

At Wellington, we get the chance to chat with amazing, engaging educators from all over the country. Recently, Rob Brisk met with Emelie Inderhees, a Latin teacher at The Wellington School, to learn more about how she so effectively engages students: https://t.co/Pk6L1WX8DO

The EAST Initiative does amazing work--and we've had the opportunity to meet one of the amazing facilitators that make EAST happen! Rob Brisk recently interviewed Jodi Keith, the EAST facilitator at Northeast Tech in Claremore, Oklahoma: https://t.co/2Fim05x3qb @EASTinitiative

In our latest interview, we sat down with Megan Riva, a 5th grade language arts & social studies teacher from @LCS_BC in Lebanon, Ohio. Megan incorporates autonomy and connection so well in her classes--read how here: https://t.co/aZjkJUhySa @WellingtonJags #studentengagement

This month, we sat down with Captain Tim Stainer, a fire and EMS instructor at @DelawareAreaCC in Delaware, Ohio. Tim's classes ask students to both pass tough tests, and become experts on firehouse movement. Read more: https://t.co/qruqJTZqBh @WellingtonJags #studentengagement

Always proud of Wellington's greatest hockey player of all time @JRoslovic96. Not just a great player but also a great young man. Wishing him all the best in NYC. Go Rangers!

Excited for Debbie Adkins presentation, "Promoting Authentic Student Engagement", tomorrow morning (Session T-7 @ 9AM) at the ISACS Annual Conference! Debbie will be sharing about the engagement work being done at @francisparkerky, which includes the Wellington Engagement Index!

Proud to see my @D_ESchool successor on to his next big opportunity!

[Dave Paulsen @PaulsenDave]

@schauffd22 Got it!!!!!!!!!!

[Robert Brisk @BriskRobert]

Getting ready to talk to amazing EAST students #eastcon23 in Hot Springs, Arkansas. These young people are doing amazing work.

@BriskRobert I’m reading my grandfather’s letters home from WWII and thought you’d appreciate this - at one point he tells my grandmother that he can’t reveal his location but “ it delenda est, if you know what I mean.”

[Robert Brisk @BriskRobert]

@schauffd22 Love it!!! Did he sign the letter “Cato?”

[Robert Brisk @BriskRobert]

My deepest gratitude to the Manley family and @WellingtonJags for this honor of a lifetime.

[Robert Brisk @BriskRobert]

Congratulations to @WellingtonJags on completion of their wonderful new spaces. The "Changing our Spots" celebration Sunday was a wonderful reminder of what we love about Columbus and the Wellington School!

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

Students don't need a perfect teacher. Students need a happy teacher, who's gonna make them excited to come to school and grow a love for learning.

[Robert Brisk @BriskRobert]

I have finished "War and Peace" and let me be the first to say, it's a classic.

[The Wellington Initiative @twi_engagement]

After six years of recording student engagement in schools throughout the country, excited to say that our one millionth dot was recorded by a student at @WoodwardAcademy. Exciting!

[Robert Brisk @BriskRobert]

thanks to @RuthMilligan and @NancyKramer for getting me on the TEDX Columbus stage five years ago today. Measuring student engagement is more important today than it was in 2016. https://t.co/4jNF1IBwLT
