About ivonprefontaine

I have been an educator for almost 20 years. Prior to that, I worked in private industry for 15 years, then returned to university to earn my education degree. For the past 11 years, I have been a co-creator of learning in a unique, progressive, alternative educational school of choice. Currently, I am engaged in a doctoral program at Gonzaga University in Spokane. A main theme in my learning there has been the roles of systems thinking, complexity theory, and organizational theory, and how they apply to education generally and the learning environment I share with students, parents, and colleagues.

    What is happiness today? Putting my monkey brain to rest and just enjoying the beauty around me. I know it’s there.

    This morning it is simple pleasures–it is sunshine outside the window, a message from my sister, a hot cup of coffee, and all while listening to my son playing his mandolin. Thank you for helping us be mindful of our precious moments, Ivon.
