Salute to Don Riesett!
The Creative Writing Seminar could just as well be called Creative Thinking explains teacher Don Riesett. This weekly group session followed by another weekly one-on-one session provides an opportunity for the students to dive deeply into their thinking and creativity. They produce a fresh work each week for topics that can be extremely personal and self reflective to those that challenge the imagination. Each student’s take is unique and often surprising in the approach taken.
All of this is possible because of the inspirational and engaging teaching of Mr. Don. He has been developing student’s skills and talents for 16 years now at The Community School. Don’s class has a central role in the personal development of each student and the cohesion of the class.
We are so grateful for you Mr. Don!
