1.2.2 Professional Development
Our community nature partner, Janine Pollack, recently offered a professional learning experience for our teachers. During this time she shared the importance of being educated in native plants. She shared a key resource with our group, Bringing Nature Home by Doug Tallamy, from which she shared several key points. Her message empowered our teachers to consider the significant impact they can make on students by educating them on the importance of of planting and maintaining native species plants. We will be providing a copy of Doug's book to members on the Green School Committee. Janine will also be providing another inservice to our staff to offer professional learning specific to our new and improved courtyard.
Members in Attendance: Sara Cox, Lauren Martinelli, Danielle La Tour, Laila Parham, Maureen Coffey, Pete Roeser, Mackenzie Yee, Amy Greer, Denise Lancaster, and Sandra Morrison
