May, 2005: DeLeT (Day School Leadership Through Teaching) and ACE (Alliance for Catholic Education) Retreat, Thompson Island, Boston Harbor
In early May, 2005 a small group of DeLeT (Day School Leadership Through Teaching) Fellows, alumni, and faculty and a small group of Notre Dame University’s ACE (Alliance for Catholic Education) teachers and faculty (30 in all) embarked on a three day retreat to Thompson Island, one of Boston’s harbor islands. Throughout the intense days that the early-career teachers spent on the retreat, they explored the fundamental questions: Why do I teach? Why do I teach in a Jewish or Catholic school?
