Hello Parents!  Wow! Today, we had a great conversation with seventeen-year-old Drew Formsma, author of, Everyday Generosity!  Students did a great job reading their prepared questions and absorbing much of Drew’s knowledge and wisdom.  We asked questions about his work that inspires young people to be generous and how that give others, and ourselves, so much joy!  We also focused questions to help us understand how Drew interprets having a growth mindset, a theme we’ve been exploring at Georgetown and in our classroom this year.  He shared stories from his childhood and practical advice for us as students begin their transition towards middle school.  I hope students got as much as I did today and discovered that we can connect with, and learn from people we hear about and admire!
