2021 AFT TEACH Conference

Ed Eckel, high school science, St Johnsbury, VT.

I am looking for ways to re-build classroom community and to make compelling opting in to being part of a supportive and giving classroom learning community with 9th-10th graders who have found opting out to be a viable path during covid distancing and isolation. I am looking for ways to knock apart the white patriarchal acquisition system for privilege. And I am looking for ways to re-connect with educators and others who see the exchange of ideas and not the convicting of others as the purpose of social interactions.
