Here’s what they had to say…

We are so proud of our colleague, Patrice Semicek from MCIU’s Office of Organizational and Professional Learning, for creating and running GiftEDventure 2026 at Penn State. It was an extraordinary gathering of gifted education professionals from across Pennsylvania who came together to learn, collaborate, and discover new ways to support gifted learners.

Through small cabin-based learning groups, hands-on activities, and inspiring keynote speakers, participants explored new approaches to gifted education, shared ideas with colleagues from across the state, and strengthened their understanding of how to create more equitable opportunities for gifted learners.

We look forward to sharing these practices and strategies with the districts and communities we serve!

MCIU’s Office of Organizational & Professional Learning (OOPL) hosted a Restorative Practices professional development this week with the team at Methacton School District, focusing on strategies educators can use to build stronger relationships, foster a sense of belonging, and create a more collaborative school community.

Through the two-day introductory experience, participants explored how restorative practices can be used both proactively to strengthen relationships and responsively to navigate conflict and promote accountability.

By shifting the focus from control and compliance toward connection and collaboration, restorative practices give educators tools to help students feel heard, take ownership of their actions, and work through challenges in meaningful and productive ways.

Great work to our OOPL team!
