S4E4 - Sustainable Gift Giving

Author: Bill Selak December 20, 2019 Duration: 33:01
In this episode of the CTE podcast we discuss what it means to think of your $ as a vote and ways that your gift giving can be more sustainable...

Hosted by Bill Selak, the Hillbrook School Podcast offers a genuine look inside the life of an independent school community in Silicon Valley. This isn't about abstract theory; it's a series of conversations with the educators themselves, sharing the real stories and practical insights from their classrooms. You'll hear how they translate the school's mission-to nurture a deep love of learning-into everyday practice, and what it truly means to inspire young people to reach beyond their own expectations. Each episode reflects a commitment to creating an inclusive environment that mirrors the rich diversity of the surrounding community. The discussions are grounded in Hillbrook's core values: be kind, be curious, take risks. For parents, educators, or anyone curious about thoughtful learning environments, this podcast provides a window into the challenges and triumphs of fostering student growth. Listen in for honest reflections on what works, the questions that drive their practice forward, and the small moments that define a meaningful education.
