ESC-20 provides professional development and technical assistance to support educators with implementation of the Social Studies TEKS, analyze data to enhance instructional practices to meet the needs of students, and provides targeted support to reach campus and district goals.
 


Important Session Information:


Biographies offer more than just stories of the past—they provide valuable lessons, inspiration, and connections to our own lives. In this session, we will explore the power of reading biographies, uncovering the struggles, achievements, and defining moments of influential individuals. Through guided discussion and reflection, participants will identify themes that resonate with their own experiences, drawing meaningful parallels between historical figures and personal growth. By examining the lives of others, we can gain insight, motivation, and a deeper understanding of our own journeys.

Our session will focus on LBJ, and John "Cactus" Jack Garner this day.
