Join us here at Keep Indiana Learning for all 4 episodes leading up to our first Building Thinking Classrooms Conference, June 29-30, 2023, hosted by our partners at Franklin Community Schools. Lam Nguyen is currently a Middle School Principal and mathematics educator in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. He has worked in education for 15 years as a classroom teacher, divisional leader, and school administrator.
