Article in EDspaces Essentials magazine!

Flashback time! In November 2021, I presented at EdSpaces21 in Pittsburgh, PA on the challenges, joys and lessons learned from opening Marnel C. Moorman (MCM), our newest K-8 school in Shelby County which opened in December 2019.  It was not only my first time presenting at EDspaces, but my first time presenting in person outside of my district in well over a year! EDspaces's media person was kind enough to take and share some professional pictures of my session:







Now, back to the present.  EDspaces's Essentials online magazine reached out to me and asked if I wanted to write an article based on my Pittsburgh presentation.  I did, they accepted, and my article "A New School is a Narrative: How the Story of Your Building is Written and Revised" is now online!   I'm thankful for the opportunity to be published and to once again share the story of MCM.

In closing, if you're considering a renovation/new construction of a school and want to hear from educators and architects who have been through the process, or are looking for vendors to support the purchase of furnishings for a new flexible learning space, I highly recommend planning a trip to an EDSpaces conference.

(Full disclosure: As a first time visitor and presenter to their conference, I applied for, and was grateful to receive, a "scholarship" from EDspaces to offset the cost of my registration and hotel.)
