FIRST ANNUAL SUMMERSCHOOL WORKSHOP A SUCCESS

During the last week In July, ExploreLearning hosted its first Summer School Teacher Workshop. Educators from all over the country gathered in beautiful Charlottesville, Virginia for 2 days of hands-on learning, sharing and interacting. About 3 dozen middle and high school teachers (both math and science) braved the summer heat to enjoy thought provoking  sessions, delicious meals, and a nighttime visit to President James Monroe's scenic home Ashlawn Highland (just after a terrific thunderstorm which brought welcome relief from the heat). The teachers arrived either as long-time Gizmo fans or novices -- but they all left as BIG FANS of ExploreLearning Gizmos! They also enjoyed the chance to interact with ExploreLearning's product development and professional development teams.  The group was especially convivial, and new friendships were formed.

Based on its resounding success, Summer School is sure to be an annual event.

For your enjoyment, we've created a "photo album" of some of the best pictures we took during the two days in Charlottesville.
