WCSU Alumni Association recognizes local education ‘hero’
As anyone who has children or works in education knows, Covid-19 has brought many challenges to school systems and teachers’ ability to carry on. With little notice, educators everywhere had to make a quick pivot to remote or hybrid teaching. While tech-savvy middle and high school students had minimal difficulty with this, it was a challenge to figure out how to engage and maintain the attention of kindergarteners.
