“One of the best PD days we have ever had!”
Nothing makes our day more than hearing positive feedback from educators! Tricia Bauche, director of curriculum and instruction at St. Joseph School in St. Charles, Missouri, recently attended our Shared Inquiry Essentials course and shared her enthusiasm about our inquiry-based approach to teaching and learning with Charlie Murphy, our educational consultant for Missouri.
Hi Charlie!
Thanks for touching base. Today was our back to school and meet the teacher day for all 980 students coming our way next week! It was a bit crazy!
The training that Fred did on Tuesday was amazing! ALL of the teachers that attended really LOVED it! They are so excited about Shared Inquiry and can’t wait to get started. Fred was just great! Everyone really enjoyed him and are looking forward to his return in October. Seriously, I was told it was one of the best PD days we have ever had!
We are so excited to get started and hope you can join Fred when he returns for the October 16th training. I will let you know how the start of the year goes! Thanks for everything Charlie and please tell Fred that he did a wonderful job!

The mission of the Great Books Foundation is to advance the critical, reflective thinking and social and civic engagement of readers of all ages through Shared Inquiry™ discussion of works and ideas of enduring value.
