Today was an incredible day of UTSD educators learning from each other. We are so proud of our highly skilled and knowledgeable teachers who and presented professional development sessions to their colleagues during UTSD’s first Osprey EdCamp. Teachers shared skills, strategies, best practices, and other critical information with each other. Everyone showed up for one another for an energy-filled professional learning event. We opened with keynote speaker Winston Roberts (Teacher in a Suit), who shared with us his perspective on educating and preparing students for the future they will inherit. Fueled by coffee from Sip-a-Latte, graciously provided by the PTO, our educators then headed off for a day filled with sessions presented by their colleagues. We learned, we laughed, and we grew professionally together. Thank you to everyone who made this event happen, with special thanks to Danielle Procopio, district supervisor of curriculum and instruction, and to our fearless staff members who shared their gifts today!
