Principal @CasitaMagnet, a 2023 National Blue Ribbon School โข 2017 CA Teacher of the Year โข Inspired by learner-centered and relevant education โข #STEM
We were inspired by the @NFLDraft and created an 5th grade @iborganization exhibition version called PYPx DRAFT! Launched with a @UN rep leading to teachers selecting their mentor groups of learners- the room was full of energy, excitement, and the eagerness to take action! ๐๐ค
We hosted a virtual book club based on Jonathan Haidtโs Anxious Generation. The rich conversations with families started with would you send your child to Mars leading to chats about nostalgia, reflections, case studies, and positives and negatives of a device based childhood.
As we step into 2025, let's embrace new beginnings, fresh opportunities, and endless possibilities. โจ
May this year bring you joy, peace, health, and unforgettable moments.
