Reading stories like these truly make us giddy. Our core mission centers around the concept of "students first." What better way to put students first than to actually make the space for their voices in their education? When students are encouraged to lead and bring their unique ideas to the table, education thrives. It’s a reminder that every learner deserves an environment that celebrates their individuality and caters to how they learn best. Thank you, Dr. Monique Darrisaw-Akil, for sharing your story of how your district is putting students first every day. We're so excited to see how other schools also implement these impactful changes and new ideas to continue to improve educational outcomes. https://lnkd.in/gvJ8yh-q
