We are happy to announce that Mr. Brandon Speeg will be joining the Discovery community on October 3rd as our new Director of Sustainability. In this position, Brandon will be responsible for overseeing Discovery's safety and security procedures, managing the campus and buildings, and directing auxiliary programming while maintaining a conservation and eco-literacy mindset.
Brandon was born in rural Southeastern Ohio where he developed a love of nature and the outdoors. He then earned a Bachelors degree from Bowling Green State University in Biology and a Masters degree from Wright State University in Biology. Brandon joins Discovery from White Oak Conservation, where he led the formation and development of the foundational education department and was also responsible for leading safety and security, professional training, and sustainability programs.
Brandon and his wife, Mindy, have two sons who have been Discovery students since 2013. We are excited that Brandon will soon bring his expertise and passion for eco-literacy, sustainability, and safety to The Discovery School. Welcome, Brandon!
SCHOOL UNIFORMS & PE SHIRTS
We have a limited supply of school uniforms (polo shirts and jumpers) in most sizes still available for purchase in the administration office if you are interested. Polo shirts are $20 and jumpers are $35.
If you ordered additional PE shirts, you should have received them in your child's backpack on Friday. If you did not receive your order, please let Sara know as we had several orders placed without names.
Discovery students were excited for the reveal of their 'Animal of the Year' from our Education Partner,
White Oak Conservation. This year our research and conservation efforts will focus on the critically endangered Curassow and will culminate in a field trip to White Oak for the Elementary students. Through our partnership with White Oak, we are inspiring the next generation of conservationists!
