Headed to NYC Next Week!

 

 

I am so honored to be heading to New York next week as a part of my fellowship with America Achieves to participate in NBC’s Education Nation at the downtown Public Library. One of the most exciting events of the conference is the Teacher Town Hall where hundreds of teachers come together and engage a discussion with education leaders. There is always an open mike for questions . . . anyone have ideas about questions I should be asking?

The contest begins today and ends in January when judges will select 10 winners and give them a cash reward as well as videography equipement to help them make more videos.
