Irwin County School System and its educators are dedicated to professional development through workshops. Educators attended a workshop on Emotional Poverty presented by Ruby Payne which brought valuable experience for educators.

Emotional poverty refers to a state where individuals may lack the emotional resources and skills needed to navigate and cope with life's challenges. It's important for educators to understand and address emotional poverty in order to create a supportive and inclusive learning environment for all students.

Ruby Payne is a well-known educator and author who has written extensively on topics related to poverty and education. Her workshops often focus on providing practical strategies for educators to better support students who may be facing challenges related to emotional poverty.

By participating in this workshop, educators in the Irwin County School System gained valuable insights and tools to better connect with and support their students, ultimately leading to a more positive and effective learning experience for everyone involved.
