This year’s PDI theme, “The Next Generation of Science: Innovate, Elevate, and Accelerate,” will bring together science educators from across Virginia to explore cutting-edge strategies, share innovative teaching practices, and collaborate on how to better prepare our students for the challenges and opportunities of the future. It promises to be a remarkable event filled with inspiring sessions, hands-on workshops, and opportunities to connect with fellow educators. Don’t miss this chance to be part of a community dedicated to elevating science education to new heights. We look forward to seeing you there! Jill Collins, VAST President
