Share Fair 2020

Our sixth annual Share Fair is now in the rearview mirror.  Thanks to our teachers, students, librarians and building tech who led fantastic presentations!

While I must give special thanks to all of our attendees, I feel it necessary to point out a group of educators who likely win the contest for "longest distance traveled to come to Share Fair."  Principal Shannon Treece and her team from Babcock Neighborhood School traveled a thousand miles from Babcock Ranch, Florida in order to attend our sessions.  (Well...in full disclosure, they also visited several Shelby schools earlier in the day!)  Not only did they appreciate what our presenters discussed, but they were also so inspired by the Share Fair format that they have already started work on hosting a Share Fair of their own this fall.  It is beyond flattering to think that the first (known!) Share Fair outside of Kentucky will soon be happening.

Speaking of firsts: This year, I used Wakelet for the first time to create a Collection for Share Fair 2020, capturing the story of the event -- in particular, the #SCsharefair tweets.  It is embedded below or available directly here.

Thanks again, and we can't wait to see you next school year!
