What People Are Saying
“Don Stinson's session on socioeconomic status and success was one of the best prepared professional development sessions I've ever attended. There was so much practical content shared in just 60 minutes.”
— Chandran D., IL
Don Stinson has done a masterful job of detailing, providing insight, suggesting solutions, and giving us the words to use on the “everything else” side of our profession. This deep dive into the “job” side is examined through the lens of low-income and rural settings. However, it is also an invaluable resource for teaching in ALL situations regardless of subject matter, socioeconomic standing, or availability of resources.
