Hello,

I hope this note finds you and yours well. My name is Kendall and I am reaching out on behalf of The Social Institute to ask if you would be open to connecting about SEL and social media education goals and complimentary professional development sessions for your members?

The Social Institute partners with public schools across the nation, from Boston, MA to Juneau, AK, to empower students to positively navigate their social world with a focus on social media and technology. Additionally, we offer complementary professional development sessions to associations to help educators navigate the complex intersection of social media, social-emotional health, and technology in the classroom.


Here are some workshop themes that our Founder and CEO, Laura Tierney, would be excited to run with your member schools:

How innovative schools are navigating social media, social-emotional health, and current events

The latest social media trends among students, and what schools should do

Best practices to helping school community discuss current events

We’d love to schedule a time for us to discuss goals at the Virginia School Boards Association for SEL professional development and ways we could support your members. Do you have some time in the next couple of weeks for a brief introductory call?

Thanks. I look forward to hearing from you!

Best,
Kendall Goldblum
