🌟 Welcoming Staff Back for a New School Year! 🌟
We had an incredible start to the new school year with our recent convocation, welcoming our dedicated staff back! Our guest speaker, Dave Burgess, brought the energy and inspiration we needed to kick off the year.
Dave Burgess is a New York Times Best-Selling author of "Teach Like A PIRATE: Increase Student Engagement, Boost Your Creativity, and Transform Your Life as an Educator" and co-author of "P is for PIRATE: Inspirational ABC's for Educators." He is renowned for his creative, entertaining, and outrageously energetic style.
Dave empowered our teachers to embrace the mighty purpose of being an educator and sparked them to design classes that are life-changing experiences for students. We're excited to see the amazing impact this inspiration will have on our classrooms this year!
Here's to a fantastic school year ahead! 🌟
