Education alum inspires change through simple moments
Elementary education alum Curtis Slater is many things: Dragon Impact Award Winner, National Distinguished Principal of the Year for Minnesota, and TILL360 co-founder. But that doesn’t stop him from prioritizing making others smile.
“When you can make other people laugh – that is one of the greatest gifts you can give someone,” he says.
Following his tenure as a principal, Slater went on to impact the education field through motivational speaking and his company TILL360. TILL360, which stands for Teach, Inspire, Listen, and Learn, collaborates with school districts in Minnesota and beyond to develop processes that support social, emotional, and behavioral growth.
Slater reminds us that we can leave an impact in big and small ways, even if it’s as simple as greeting others with a smile.
