Katie Montini - “Museum and School Interactions” (session 6) This project explores the ways in which museums and school systems interact with each other through several interviews. Additionally, it explores the role that museums take on in the field of education and the importance of museums as educational facilities. As museum and school interactions become more popular there are a much wider variety of programs becoming available to supplement classroom instruction, especially for elementary science. Domonique Mucker - Self Defense Scenario (Special Session 9:00-12) Maho Muramatsu (session 16) - see Linder Makenzie Murphree - “Five Things I Learned from Dr. Bruce Perry and Oprah” (poster session) In April of 2021, Dr. Bruce Perry and Oprah released a book together titled What Happened to You? , a powerful piece that highlighted the conversations between the two authors on trauma, resilience, and healing.

First, the authors focus on making this book a reading experience that will help the audience understand their feelings and where those feelings may have stemmed from as well as helping them understand their reactions to these feelings.

An educational pamphlet was developed to showcase the methods listed above for use by staff.

The convention will spotlight Nobel Prize winning, African American author Toni Morrison.

Olson will argue that The Bluest Eye is Morrison's best novel and her most insightful comment on race and class in the United States.
