If there’s one thing I want educators to think about it’s that we are the people responsible for that work, just like we’re responsible for guiding young people to positive behavior in a wide variety of areas! If you’re not proactively engaging with that work, you’re setting students up for failure.

It’s an Academy community plot, so kind of? It’s been a long tradition among Deerfield faculty to garden in our South division and our farming neighbors help plow the plots.

Hi @jedediyah.com! Would love to chat about data science, I’ve been doing curriculum work recently and am full of ideas! (My latest idea is about buying a personal weather station, hooking it to Wunderground, and doing a multi year project involving weather data at our location.)

The best thing was after the whole thing happened, Brennan had to tell them that they actually needed them to be in their seats to fix it 😂

They’ve said they’re putting it on Dropout for sure! So you’ll be able to see how incredible it was :)

So there were technical issues that meant they needed to wait for some lighting changes, and Lou and Murph just decided to fill time by going full WWE.

I actually think after looking at it you're 2/3 to get the valuable goat so you shouldn't switch!
