Come Read with Us!
Summer is upon us, the perfect time to reclaim all the space in your brain, space formerly occupied by students, texts, testing, etc. From Sunday, June 23 to Saturday July 26, Gary Anderson, Teresa Bunner, Karen LaBonte, and Steve Shann will co-lead a discussion of Neil Postman’s The End of Education: Redefining the Value of School.
