She has facilitated writing workshops for colleagues herself, and as a district administrator, she employed the NWP model system-wide, including professional development with nationally recognized teachers of writing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sandy also represented her school district in a partnership with the Kennedy Center\u2019s <em>Partners in Education Program<\/em>. During her nineteen-year tenure in the network, she and her local partners created professional development opportunities for educators in the arts, including performing, visual, literary and folk arts. As an extension of these efforts, she supported <em>Local Learning <\/em>projects in regional schools to integrate folk artists and teaching artists in instruction. As part of these projects, she helped the national <em>Local Learning<\/em> leaders to design summer institutes for educators that included creative writing, interviewing, exploring folkways, and art-making.<\/p>\n<p>Sandy\u2019s own creative compositions mostly take the form of poetry. In these writings Sandy has documented and transformed her own lived traditions, objects of material culture, and interviews with regional cultural stewards into creative texts exploring such themes as identity, community, relationships, and change.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.locallearningnetwork.org\/journal-of-folklore-and-education\/journal-submissions-information\/\">Learn more about
