Peacham Library will hold its 207th Annual Meeting on Monday, July 10 at 6:30pm. Following the business portion of the meeting, Stergios Lazos, the Upper School Director at Lyndon Institute, will speak. The title of his talk is "Back to the Future: Lessons learned from the One Room School House."
The leading educators today are advocating a proficiency and project based curriculum for our students in all our schools. In addition, professional development for teachers is centered on helping our children develop a growth mindset where they are willing to learn from their peers and to follow their passions. Lazos will explore how teachers in a one room schoolhouse employed this method of teaching and learning and how this style of learning can be implemented today.
Everyone is welcome to attend the meeting and talk. Refreshments will be served. Peacham Library's Community Room is handicap accessible. Contact Peacham Library at 592-3216 or peachamlib@fairpoint.net for further details.
