The in-person professional learning session at The Founders Inn and Spa was a great success, with over 100 educators registered and engaged in student-centered Science SOL review strategies. Led by Sarah Plumitallo (PWCPS Elementary Science Coordinator), Eric Rhoades (VAST Past President) and Jill Collins (VAST President) the session provided practical, high-impact approaches that participants can immediately apply to improve student outcomes.
