May 11, 2026: When Students Decide How They Are Seen

This week’s issue of Hooray For Monday is a contribution from an Inspired Teaching Fellow who we’ve worked with for many years now, Kim Kelley. Ms. Kelley is a teacher at Goodwill Excel Center here in Washington, DC, and, as you’ll hear in her conversation with Meag shortly, her high school classroom is a bit unusual: Kim’s students are non-traditional. They’re learners who, for many reasons, did not get their high school diploma on the first go. They range in age from their late teens to their early 80s, and, as Kim shares, that means that in addition to helping them learn the academic material and earn their degrees, she and her colleagues at Goodwill Excel are also tasked with helping their students overcome the educational barriers that kept them from doing so the first time. In her piece for Hooray For Monday, Kim offers a glimpse into how she approaches this work in her Strategies for Critical Thinking class, through art and very intentional efforts at relationship building.
