@AbDPittsburgh hosted at Western PA School for Blind Children and Falk Laboratory School… 2 locations oh my! It was an amazing day to look at learning across both innovative schools. Value mapping was awesome too! @remakelearning

Still blown away by all the amazing learning environments created, to facilitate opportunities for personalized student engagement. Horticulture therapy, maker spaces, medical equipment workshops and more. Well done Falk and WPSBC! @remakelearning @HeidiOndek1 @AbDPittsburgh

Happy 135th Anniversary WPSBC! To kick-off the celebrations, staff enjoyed donuts and received commemorative logo items, and info on the School’s history. Students also received bags with the commemorative logo.

Donuts were provided to the school by @Aerie #AerieRealKindness
