Comments from Teachers

This was the most amazing PD I’ve ever been a part of. It revolutionized my civics instruction and helped me accomplish something I didn’t know I was capable of pulling off. I had the time of my life implementing the mock congressional hearing with my students and cannot wait to do this again!"
It was one of the best professional developments I have ever attended. The content was stimulating, the participants were interesting and the state coordinators were very helpful - I would highly recommend it to any history and/or government teacher."
This was the BEST PD in my nearly 20-year career as a social studies teachers, thank you!"
I think James Madison would be proud. :)"
