“The ability to question is power!”
“My word is INSPIRED!!!”
“The content presented to us was valuable and useful especially for the students I serve.”
“In full support of this work and believe it will create learners who are critical thinkers and problem solvers. Thank you.”
“Thank you for caring out our kids and our teachers. All the teachers who were there felt respected and loved.”
“Reinvigorated and Inspired.”
“It gave me direction, so I feel excited for this new journey.”
“Overwhelmed but excited at the same time.”
“I really feel motivated and appreciated.”
“Supported, inspired to try things and do the best I can and know I have a support team.”
“The experience made me feel supported and I really felt calm knowing we are not alone. We are all in this together.”
“I left with a feeling of hope and excitement. It truly almost brought tears to my eyes that our region is bringing back collaboration and a hands on learning experience to our students.”
“That I³is revolutionary in the way they are approaching education, and that it is exactly how we need to change the system to better educate children.”
“We are the right people doing the right work.”
“After going through the training, I looked forward to the program’s future training days.”
“The day was amazing and information was very beneficial.”
“Just a really great training and teaching and looking forward to applying this in the classroom.”
“This training correlated with my teaching pedagogy in relation to identifying what students already know and using that to adjust my lesson.”
“It definitely challenges me to be more in the space of teaching instead of training.”
“This is the first training in 25 years I’ve actually enjoyed and loved the collaboration with the math team and even administrators.”
“This was one of the best trainings I have received.”
“I really enjoyed this training. I think our facilitator, Rev, had a lot of great information and did a good job helping us.”
