mystery person
Rebecca Benarroch
K-8 Principal
{I appreciated the brain research the most, as well as the one-page chart of EF central behaviors that was shared in the chat. In my opinion, the Day 1 lunch keynote with Brad Brooks was off-topic (with a stretched connection to EF in adults), arrogant and extremely insulting to parents/guardians.
