Great #AI session at the Krause Center for Innovation (KCI) today! It was informative to have Akanksha Dadlani, MD, MPH from Stanford University a keynote speaker and learn more about the impact of AI on brain development, followed by Common Sense Media. We got to debrief as a team to plan our next steps, including details of student listening sessions, parent education, and more. I also enjoyed visiting the Palo Alto Unified School District Middle College on the Foothill College during lunch joining their #November festivities. It was awesome to troubleshoot science option with the college Simon Pennington (appreciate partnership so much!), Emily Garrison and Rachel Dial while being there, which is such a relief heading into the weekend!

: 🌟 Thank You for Following Our Youth Ambassador Takeover! 🌟 We hope you enjoyed hearing directly from our students about what matters most to them, the programs and support that make their day-to-day learning meaningful and inspiring. As Rally Days come to a close, remember that your gift to PiE isn’t just funding programs. It’s supporting what our students truly care about. Every art class that sparks creativity, every hands-on science experience that ignites curiosity, every music program that lets them express themselves, every counseling session that helps them navigate challenges, and every classroom aide who supports their success is made possible because of you. Giving through their perspective shows exactly how your support transforms their experience and empowers them to thrive. 💡🎨🎶

It has been a full year of planning and effort to upgrade Paly’s glassblowing equipment. The new custom equipment has arrived, installed, and the lid is officially off! Thank you to everyone who helped make this unique hands-on learning opportunity possible for Paly students. And a special thanks to the state career technical education grants for supporting this project. Palo Alto Unified School District Brent Kline Charen Y.

Some more thoughts for hope: -Educators are under tremendous pressure -The work keeps coming -We can’t help others find help if we don’t know how to ask for help ourselves. -When your organization cares, it makes all the difference. I can testify to this first hand. -There are so many people who truly care about us. We are not alone in this work. Thank you for this insightful session.

It was an honor to speak at today's Stanford Accelerate Edtech Impact Summit 2025 (https://lnkd.in/dEh-rFyG), representing Gunn High School/PAUSD! It was inspiring to hear diverse perspectives, including researchers, industry professionals, graduate students, and educators, regarding the future of education and how technology, particularly AI, plays a role in that. We need to build a curriculum that supports learning that lasts, with durable and foundational skills such as curiosity, perseverance, problem-solving, divergent thinking, and collaboration. Plus, I got to see some awesome implementations of technology for social good. I'm looking forward to contributing to building these "Future-Ready" technologies and am excited for what the future holds!

A huge thank you to Isabelle Hau and the team at Stanford Accelerator for Learning having us at EdTech Impact Summit. It was inspiring to engage with diverse stakeholder including educators, researchers, industries who are shaping the future of AI in education and beyond. The conversations around ethical innovation, creativity, and lifelong learning reminded us how critical it is to prepare our students and ourselves with the skills that last in an AI-driven world. We deeply appreciate the opportunity to learn, collaborate, and be part of this important dialogue. Amazing to be part of this history! #AI #Education #Innovation #StanfordHAI #PaloAltoUSD Wendy Stratton, Ed.D. Rachael Kaci Alice Pak, Ed.D. Christopher Hoang, Ed.D.
