Having had the privilege of working with Chris and her students, I am happy to see her work recognized. She strives to incorporate authentic and empathy building learning experiences for her students. Congrats Chris and Maple Hill students on your efforts over the past 9 years!
Each month leading up to #IGC2024, we highlight the dedicated educators and schools that have inspired and motivated their students to support clean water projects in South Sudan. 🦒💙💦 Next up is another long-time supporter, Maple Hill Junior Senior High School/@SchodackCSD and Christine Fowler! 👏🏻
Maple Hill has participated in the Iron Giraffe Challenge since the 2015-2016 school year. As a result, they have raised over $6,700.

Thank you @sljournal for an awesome first ever virtual #sljdod ! My tbr pile has grown exponentially, the authors and panels were excellent. I wasn’t sure a virtual event would measure up to the irl experience, but you did it!!
Attending @sljournal #sljdod Graphic Novel panel - love to hear about the process of bringing graphic novels to life!
Are graphic novels literature? @halseanderson “oh hell yes!” Graphic novels require all the tools that prose novels do. We need to educate people on their value! #sljdod
