Hillary Kramer, our Director of Admissions, is off at the annual Independent Educational Consultant Association Conference in Orlando, Florida this week! The goal of the conference is for schools and programs to connect with Educational Consultants and each other. There are seminars, workshops, and speeches aimed to help both consultants and representatives from schools and programs improve. Hillary is having a great time connecting with consultants she's known for years, meeting new consultants, and learning about other school programs! She especially enjoyed the keynote speaker at this year's conference, 17 year old Justin Bachman, who shared his struggles and his resilience as someone with Tourette's. Justin challenges everyone to "Be an upstander, not a bystander." His speech was relevant to so many of our students and was very inspiring! Here's a video of Justin introducing his methods and ideas:
