Beverly J.

More than 100 teachers attended their interactive workshop, which shared ways in which elementary school teachers can introduce algebraic thinking techniques to their students in a manner that complements the Common Core Standards for Mathematical Practices.

Jim Chesebrough, Music, and senior KSC music students Dan Cicarello, Sarah Wolff, Katey Lundstedt, and Jesse Oberg presented “So Tell Us a Bit More About Yourself: Interviewing for the Job You Want” at the New Hampshire Music Educators Association Fall Conference at Southern New Hampshire University.
