Grateful to full days of learning and fun at #GLISymposium. Would not be such a success without the amazing lead teacher team, national top scholars and motivated educators. Thx! @Gilder_Lehrman & @gettysburg

It was a hot day at @GettysburgNMP but nothing like learning history on the grounds where it happened! Our focus was the Black narrative through the lens of history versus memory. @Gilder_Lehrman #GLISymposium

American Revolution #GLISymposium pedagogy session participants defined freedom & engaged w/primary sources to explore “How is it possible to be unfree in a “free” country?” @Gilder_Lehrman

Yesterday, a number of people shockingly comfortable publicly identifying themselves as white nationalists marched through Nashville.   My first priority in this moment—as always—was the safety of Nashvillians.

Excited to think how this week’s learning experiences will impact students in classrooms across multiple Virginia school districts. We spent an entire day today at Lexington & Concord. One more day to go! @wep_us @Gilder_Lehrman

Great lineup of speakers at @WilcoHeritage Educator Institute. Always a delight to learn from @DrAngelaSutton. Nothing like summer to dig into the a rich database and consider the possibilities of creating learning experiences for my students. buildersanddefenders.org/

A HUGE thanks to @FortNegley for allowing @USN_PDS students to share local Black history at the place where it all started. The “Nashville Uncovered” performances were purely magical!
