What an incredible way to kick off the new school year!

July 30, the FAU Stiles-Nicholson STEM Teacher Academy SNSTA through the Center for Educational Strategy & Innovation proudly supported The School District of Palm Beach County’s New Teacher Academy, welcoming educators as they prepared to begin a new school year and a new chapter in their careers.

With more than 500 new teachers joining the district, nearly 200 educators participated in eight CESI/SNSTA-sponsored sessions facilitated by CTLG Consulting’s Eric Rhoades and Skip Tyler. Through engaging, interactive professional learning, teachers explored practical strategies for building classroom community, strengthening student engagement, and creating positive learning environments from day one.

On August 5th, The School District of Palm Beach County held its annual Math, Science, and STEM Back-to-School Conference, bringing engaging professional learning to educators as they prepare to welcome students back to their classrooms.

Nearly 200 teachers attended CESI/SNSTA-sponsored sessions facilitated by CTLG’s Eric Rhoades and A.D. Henderson & FAU High School’s FAU Lab Schools’ 2026 District Teacher of the Year, Lindsey Wuest. Through interactive, practical, and classroom-ready learning experiences, educators explored innovative strategies designed to spark curiosity, deepen student engagement, and bring learning to life.

We are grateful for the opportunity to partner with the School District of Palm Beach County to invest in the educators who inspire our students every day—and thankful to Eric, Skip, and Lindsey for sharing their expertise, creativity, and passion with teachers across the state of Florida.

We remain committed to providing meaningful, cost-free professional learning that inspires, empowers, and equips educators to make an impact in their classrooms and beyond.

Here’s to an innovative and inspiring 2026–2027 school year!

On Saturday, May 16, educators from across the region came together for AI in Action: Empowering Teachers to Lead Ethical, Real-World, and Project-Based AI Learning, an engaging day of innovation, collaboration, and future-focused professional learning.

Hosted at the Cox Science Center and Aquarium in partnership with the PBC STEM Ecosystem through the support of the Stiles-Nicholson Foundation, the workshop equipped educators with foundational AI knowledge and practical strategies for meaningful classroom integration.

Facilitator Dr. Angie Moran brilliantly delivered content in a way that not only informed but inspired educators to think deeply about the future of teaching and learning in an AI-driven world. Through hands-on experiences and rich discussion, teachers explored AI concepts, large language models (LLMs), ethics, bias, data privacy, and responsible AI use while engaging in real-world, project-based applications designed to strengthen critical thinking and data literacy.

As AI continues to transform our world, empowering educators to lead these conversations with confidence, creativity, and ethical awareness has never been more important.

Their voices reminded us why collaboration and student-centered support matter so deeply. Thank you to all partners working together to inspire and empower the next generation of STEM leaders.
