Recent Professional Development: Dr. Reyes' "Lenses of Humanity"

On Monday, October 6, the GEAR UP Wyoming team and guests attended Dr. Kyle Reyes' "Lenses of Humanity Educator Workshop" a powerful professional development experience focused on personal growth and strengthening connections with students and families.

 

Through an engaging keynote and four interactive sessions, we explored the Lenses of Humanity framework: Inner, Context, Empathy, and Community. We gained fresh insight into our educational practices and left with practical strategies, renewed perspectives, and tools to foster more intentional and connected classroom environments.
