Dear Together Friends, Fans, and Family,

I was in full-on Vacation Mode in late June and early July (and also continuing my journey as the World’s Best World Cup Wife – yes, Dr. Together hopped in a minivan with five other dads and drove to Philly for 24 hours for some watch parties), and so our monthly Together Tips takes a planned pause as well (yes, we plan the pause annually). But, I’m still around in a fun way on Instagram, and I remain active-ish on LinkedIn. A few short notes for this month!

Maia’s Summer Recommendations. Though no one has asked me for my summer recommendations, I like to pretend I’m a low-key influencer. So here you go! I cannot stop listening to this, watching this, cooking this, and reading this. Also, in an effort to keep some screen-free time – and inspired by our June Together Tour – I’m working on this and this.

Get Together with Us. Come join us for an open enrollment class this summer or fall. One recent participant shared the following feedback:

Over here, the Together Team is busy prepping for a summer full of classes (the thrill of 12 cities in 12 weeks continues) and trying to find balance and rest where we can! We’ve had a great time so far this summer with Jackson Public Schools, The Mind Trust, Great Oaks Legacy Charter School, and Excellence Community Schools. Over the next few weeks, we’re looking forward to getting Together with Teach For America Baltimore, Teach For America DC and Virginia, Teach For America North Carolina, Tulsa Honor Academy, College Bound Academy, KIPP TEAM & Family in New Jersey, KIPP New York City, the Colorado Department of Education, and KIPP SoCal!

We had a great time with The Mind Trust and Great Oaks Legacy Charter School in June!
