#progressiveeducation — Public Fediverse posts

👋🏻 I'm Skylar (he/him). I grew up in New Orleans and moved to Madison, Wisconsin for graduate school in #Geology before changing tracks and becoming a middle/high school #Teacher.

In the #Education realm, I'm particularly passionate about #OutdoorLearning, #ProgressiveEducation, and #StudentVoice. I currently teach at Koshkonong Trails School, a small, public charter school with an environmental and agricultural focus; serve on the boards for the Wisconsin Association for Environmental Education and Human Restoration Project (@humrespro); and lead the Wisconsin Teacher-Powered Schools Network.

I like to write about teaching, and take nature photos, which I post to Medium and Flickr, respectively. I'm particularly fond of rocks and lichen.

I was heavily invested in the bird network before the billionaire took over, but I deleted my account and am learning how to Mastodon. c.im seemed like a friendly server that wasn't as absurdly large as mastodon.social, which I initially joined.

I'm excited to have a new online community to explore, while also mourning the one I've left behind. #Introduction #TwitterMigration
