We're bringing in 2019 with one of our favorite topics - Personalized Learning! Join us to learn about how new approaches to teaching and learning are transforming Tolbert classrooms and elevating student engagement. Along the way, we'll be chatting with two teachers and two students who describe their personalized learning journey, and giving some insight into the behind-the-scenes professional development in which our teachers are engaged this year. As is tradition, we'll be putting everyone on the spot to answer some funny questions. Hope you join us!

Our very first episode! Join us while we tell you about our great school and new audio program, and learn some fun and interesting things while chatting with our four new teachers.

Did you hear about when Mrs. Gillenwater chased a bear? What about that celebrity that Ms. Reynolds went to high school with - (hint, her name rhymes with Kaylor Shift).
