This past weekend, something special happened

Katie Collamore, one of our brilliant Community of Learners educators from Lincoln-Sudbury High School, presented BYkids at a workshop at MIT focused on climate literacy in the humanities and absolutely rocked it.

What started as a passionate conversation during lunch turned into a full presentation, as Katie shared five BYkids films that empower students to think critically, feel deeply and see themselves as environmental activists.

The room lit up. Teachers leaned in. And the ripple effects of our youth-made stories continued to grow.

Huge thanks to Jennifer Soalt, Ph.D. and Sydney Schaef, Ed.D., M.B.A., for hosting such a generative space and to EMA Foundation, Mass Humanities and our ever-expanding Community of Learners for making moments like this possible.
