C2BF Newsletter- September 21, 2020

Rappahannock County Public Schools had the honor of welcoming the United States Department of Education’s Assistant Secretary for Elementary and Secondary Education, Frank Brogan along with many other esteemed guests, including local and state officials, such as the chairs from the Board of Supervisors and School Board, Delegate Michael Webert, and Dr. Dave Myers, Assistant Superintendent for Data, Research, and Technology at the Virginia Department of Education. While the guests were here to see the entire division and learn about the processes that have resulted in successfully and safely reopening schools, Commit to Be Fit was excited to have the opportunity to share the Neuronasium, the ABL Lab, and the Sensory Pathway.

Assistant Secretary Brogan enthusiastically tried out one of RCHS Neuronasium desk gliders (pictured below) as well as different activities in the RCES sensory pathway. Dr. Myers, from the Virginia Department of Education, was quite impressed with the Neuronasium. According to Myers, “I’ve been through thousands of schools and have never seen anything like the Neuronasium before.”
