Here are a few highlights from recent events and partnerships that brought real-world learning to life:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Zucker Family School of Education held its annual Leadership Innovation Forum at the Gaillard Center on April 12. Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn delivered the keynote address. A distinguished panel\u2014featuring Coach Maurice Drayton, Coach Roberto Pinilla, Sean Alford, Ph.D., Don Bridenbaugh, and Page Tisdale\u2014discussed how core educational skills are essential to leadership in every field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guy Ilagan, Ph.D., and the ZFSOE partnered with Charleston County School District to host a professional training on suicide prevention and awareness, led by Heather Anderson, CCSD\u2019s coordinator of school counseling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cadets visited E.B. Ellington Elementary School, West Ashley High School and St. Andrews School of Math and Science to observe early literacy instruction in action: English, AP English, English 2, Read to Succeed, and multilingual learner support classrooms. Cadets also learned about community-building strategies, including a Ron Clark Academy-inspired house system that builds community and encourages student connection.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-LeadershipForum1-2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1592\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-LeadershipForum1-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-LeadershipForum1-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-LeadershipForum1-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-LeadershipForum1-2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-LeadershipForum1-2-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-Ilagan.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1588\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-Ilagan.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-Ilagan-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-Ilagan-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-3-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1589\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-3-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-3-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.citadel.edu\/provost-notes\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/179\/ZFSOE-3-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This spring, the Zucker Family School of Education hosted leadership forums, partnered on suicide prevention training, and gave cadets hands-on literacy and community-building experiences in local schools.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":877,"featured_media":1592,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1555","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-may-2025"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.8 (Yoast SEO v27.4) -
