We have some news for you: The "Math Gene" is a myth. 🧬🚫
Coming this Thursday on the From Forest to Shore podcast, we are busting the biggest misconceptions about learning math.
Hosts Matt Rivers and Dr. Michelle Eckler sit down with our district’s math experts to talk about why speed doesn’t equal smarts, why mistakes are actually a good thing, and how to stop the tears at the kitchen table during homework time. 😭➡️😊
Get ready to change your mindset! 🧠✨

🤖 It’s not Magic. It’s Logic.
This week on Tech "Twos" Day, we broke down Computational Thinking. And guess what? It’s not just for the coding lab! 💻🚫
We explored how to use Google Docs and MagicSchool AI to turn "Messy Problems" into "Solvable Steps" in ANY subject.
✅ English: Debug your essay flow.
✅ PE: Analyze your split times.
✅ Art: Decompose a painting into layers.
✅ Science: creating algorithms for plant growth.
SPS Teachers: The new "Computational Thinking Workspace" template is ready for you in Google Classroom. It guides students through the 4 steps: Define, Decompose, Visualize, and Automate. Not an SPS Teacher? No worries! The template will be linked in the YouTube Description for you to download!
Grab the template and start building logical thinkers tomorrow! 🧠✨

🎧 NEW EPISODE LIVE: An Exit Interview with Mike Henrick & Lisa Carroll-Fabian 🎙️
It’s time to look back to see how far we’ve come. In today’s episode of From Forest to Shore, we are bidding a fond farewell to two dedicated public servants who have spent years shaping the future of Stratford Public Schools.
Matt and Michelle ask the outgoing Board Chair and Board Member the hard-hitting questions about their tenure. We’ve edited their answers side-by-side so you can hear their unique perspectives on the work that goes on behind the scenes! 🏫
In this episode, we discuss:
📈 The Science of Reading & rising test scores
🤖 Implementing our new AI Policy
📱 The reality of the Cell Phone Policy
💼 Fiscal responsibility & "running it like a business"
❤️ The personal "Why" that drives public service
Whether you are a parent, staff member, or community member, this is a fascinating look at the decisions that impact our classrooms every day.
👉 Listen at the link in our bio.

Something special is coming to the feed this week! 🎙️✨
On the next episode of From Forest to Shore, hosts Matt Rivers and Dr. Michelle Eckler are sitting down for a candid "Exit Interview" edition. We’re joined by outgoing Board of Education Chair Mike Henrick and Board Member Lisa Carroll-Fabian as they reflect on their years of service to Stratford Public Schools.
We tried something a little different this time: Two separate sit-downs. The exact same questions. One side-by-side perspective. 🤝
From the tough decisions (like cell phone policies and budgets) to the moments that made it all worth it (graduation day! 🎓), you won’t want to miss their insights on how far our district has come.
🎧 Drop date: Thursday, Feb 5th. Turn on your post notifications so you don’t miss it! 🔔
