An amazing What School Could Be Elevating Teacher Voice blog study today with Tiffany Taylor & Michelle Culver about the AI Revolution and Youth Agency. So much to think about; so much more to do to engage our youth in THEIR futures!

A wonderful article in UHM College of Education about our 2024 Distinguished Alumnus, Glenn Furuya who founded LeadershipWorks. He continues to teach today; I sat in one of his trainings many years ago when I was just starting out as a school leader. coe.hawaii.edu/profiles/glennā€¦ Very deserving!

A wonderful event today to honor our 2024 UHM COEAA Distinguished Alumnus. Glenn Furuya received his BEd and MEd from UHM COE, taught special education at Hilo Int. & Hilo High, then pivoted to focus on leadership & formed Leadership Works. He is an inspiration! UHM College of Education

What a pleasure to share about my love for teaching with UHM College of Education students in the ā€œLeadership in Educationā€ class with Dr. Scott Robinson. I hope I inspired them to give teaching a try. They were responsive and asked good questions.

Many do not see the value of our school librarians. They are essential to the development of our students. Every school should have a certified librarian even if theyā€™re shared between schools. I am sorry your school doesnā€™t have one, Jonathon Medeiros, NBCT šŸ˜ž
