Former high school math teacher —> now a proud supporter of public schools.

Hoping to be chaotic good.

Mostly I lurk, but I like to think of it as being a good listener.
I can’t recommend Hot Springs as reliably as I can Piper and Leaf, but it’s near my stomping ground. It’s also one of only two towns that the Appalachian Trail goes through, so if you’re a hiking enthusiast…

Depends if you want to actually sit on the rocks. These places offer private tubs that circulate with water from the local hot spring: www.hotspringsnc.org/hot-mineral-...

Oh, that’ll be easy. They’re digital natives! 😉

Meh. I used tech when I taught it in 1995… i imagine there’s been debate on both sides since then?

I’d say it’s more important to use the tech and then point back to the graph to give the output context. 🤷🏻‍♀️

People will bring whole coolers…

I’ve done the Birmingham-New Orleans route several times. I love that you can walk around, the seats are roomy, and the scenery is countryside rather than bumper to bumper cars.

Take snacks!

I’m thinking less of mentors and supervisors (who you should know how they feel about you) and more about the perfunctory “three teachers and a guidance counselor” that high school students need for college apps
