As a former math teacher, I had a lot of fun this morning with our students at A. Philip Randolph Campus High School, engaging with linear models in the VR world and practicing my drone soccer skills on the “field.”
Feeling lucky to be part of such an incredible school! 💚 PS 971 wishes everyone a safe and wonderful St. Patrick’s Day. Don’t forget to wear your green! 🍀
