This was a powerful episode! It won't take long to realize these are two dynamic educators. I'm so grateful to get to meet with Hilary and Josh. Click play and listen to the whole episode. You'll be encouraged and I bet you'll take something positive away from their insights. 

Talk about how you, or how your department, worked together last summer to help prepare for this crazy school year.

Share some strategies you employed that you feel helped develop that sense of community that many felt was challenging due to obvious circumstances this year.

Are there any technology tools that have been game-changers for you and your kids this year?

Is there anything you've picked up from remote teaching that you feel will translate well once we return to "normal"?
