Curriculum Director Speaks at National Schools Conference
Burke's Director of Curriculum & Program Innovation Mike Matthews took the stage at the annual conference of the National Association of Independent Schools, which was held in Atlanta on March 7-9.
He was presenting a short "PechaKucha" talk (20 slides at 20 seconds each) about a topic near and dear to the Burke's mission: "Does Making Matter?" (Spoiler alert: YES!)
