Thankful & Refreshed!

February 24, 2020
By Julie Strickland

Thanks to the 2019-20 Springmont Fund, eight Springmont faculty members and one administrator attended the AMI-USA Annual Refresher Course in Seattle, Washington, during Presidents’ Day weekend.  Alongside “The Child and Nature” theme, keynote speaker Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods, set the tone for the weekend as he discussed his newest book The Wild Calling and the powerful link between nature and the development of the whole child. Our faculty were represented in nearly every workshop track, including Infant/Toddler, Primary, Elementary, Adolescent, and Equity. They are thrilled to bring what they learned back to Atlanta to share with their Springmont colleagues. Thank you to all the generous Springmont Fund donors for this wonderful professional development opportunity.
