FEATURED SESSION

Back by Popular Demand:
2010 Keynote Speaker Salome Thomas-EL

As a teacher and principal at an urban Philadelphia middle school, Salome Thomas-EL has seen the toll stress, uncertainty, and anger can take on children trying to cope with struggling families and communities. Through simple tools like the school’s chess club, Thomas-EL empowered and inspired his students helping them gain the self-worth and emotional stability needed to make positive life choices. In this featured session, Thomas-EL will outline his belief in the importance of teaching children not only how to be successful, but how to be resilient even when they are unsuccessful.
