Investing time and resources in professional development (PD) is crucial. Having participated in extensive teacher training, I understand the need for PD that is both effective and engaging -with a lasting impact.
Allow me to support and promote responsive change in mindsets and practices in your professional and parent communities.

"Dan, Thank you for your calm, well-thought-out, and informative presentation today at WSP. Your flexibility in letting the needs and interests of the group dictate the direction of the conversation was refreshing. I also enjoyed how you normalized using his/her/they in discussing students."
