"Terri was such a valuable resource for our district and she was a fantastic host to our team. She's made an impact on our schools."
"Jean was an invaluable addition to our team this week. Without her leadership ability, we would not have had the experience we did… She allowed for those hard conversations and even fostered them when needed."
"Aaryn was attentive. He listened to our conversations and synthesized the information into a rational response. He asked pertinent guiding questions that allowed us to remain focused and gain more from the experience."
