Join us for a special session featuring Jane R. Shore, Ed.D., the founder of School of Thought PHL,  an education researcher, idea visualizer, and community builder committed to fostering meaningful learning. Over the last 20+ years, she has been a student, a teacher, a learning scientist, and a high school cofounder. She champions people-based learning to bridge the gap between rapid knowledge growth and human connection. 

The 2025/2026 Elevating Teacher Voice discussion series is hosted by longtime educator Jan Iwase. Each session follows a simple and meaningful format: a guest educator (or educators) reads aloud their own writing, then opens the floor for reflection and conversation. No pre-work. No homework. Just deep listening, dialogue, and connection. Now in its third year, Elevating Teacher Voice has inspired hundreds of educators to reimagine teaching and learning, explore answers to the question What could school be?, and build authentic relationships with fellow educators and education leaders who write.
