Sustainable Schooling w/ Buffy Cushman-Patz (SEEQS)

Buffy Cushman-Patz is the founder and executive director of SEEQS (School for Examining Essential Questions of Sustainability) Charter School, where students are learning to become stewards of planet Earth and healthy, effective citizens of the world. On top of standard core learning in math, science, social studies, English, and the arts, students combine concepts with project-based experiences that allow students to apply what they have learned to real-world situations. "Everything we do at SEEQS is with the intent of trying to create the kind of community that we want to be a part of. I work at SEEQS because I love this community of students, teachers, and ʻohana and the work we're doing to try to make the world a better place for ourselves and for others."Buffy Cushman-Patz, SEEQS's Founder, has explored teaching and learning through the lenses of theory, policy, leadership, and through first-hand experiences as a teacher in both conventional and unconventional settings. Buffy completed her EdM in School Leadership at the Harvard Graduate School of Education in May 2012 , with School Development as her concentration. She earned an M.S. in Geology and Geophysics from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa and a B.S. in Geology from the University of Florida.Find Buffy Cushman-Patz and SEEQS online: SEEQS School's Homepage SEEQS on InstagramFind me online: This Sustainable Life: Solve For Nature Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://anchor.fm/solvefornature⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Blog: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://verdantgrowth.blog/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/c/verdantgrowth⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Twitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/VerdantGrowth⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/realverdantgrowth⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://instagram.com/verdant.growth ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://instagram.com/verdantgrowthofficial--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/solvefornature/support Hosted on Acast.
