While our students are off for the summer, our teachers are busy engaging in ongoing professional growth. Athletic director Emily Beckwith and Upper School history teacher Jon Garra attended the National Diversity Practitioners Institute in Potomac, MD, a three-day intensive institute. There they learned strategies to strengthen and sustain an inclusive and equitable community here at EFS, which will support our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion curriculum for students and families. #beyondtheclassroom #elmwoodfranklin
