Angela and Kimberly who are 4/5 teachers and Assistant Head of School Elizabeth attended a workshop on “Slow Looking” this past summer as part of the Washington International School’s Summer Institute for Teachers. What they learned and brought back to Burgundy has been woven into other on-campus professional development trainings for teachers and, of course, into the classrooms!

Programs like these are made possible thanks to donations to our Annual Giving fund. We have been challenged to reach 150 individual new or increased donations to Annual Giving before May 15 to unlock a $15,000 bonus. Help us reach our Annual Giving goal, and support additional professional development opportunities for our faculty and staff by texting “poppy” to 243725 to contribute or visit burgundyfarm.org/give.
