Every August, we focus on education throughout the pages of our magazine. Our annual Senior Spotlight feature is a big part of this—but we also look at education from different angles. This month, we’re celebrating a local teacher and introducing you to a local nonprofit that uses storytelling to build confidence in youth . We’re also exploring sustainability and what we can learn about taking better care of our environment in two different stories—one
about coffee cups and one about home design. And, in chatting with area naturalist Elsa Litecky, we’ve discovered the delight that can be found in
learning from nature.
