Welcome Our Newest Blogger: Dr. Dan Stepenosky

Dr. Dan Stepenosky, the new superintendent of the Las Virgenes Unified School District, will be blogging for Patch.

Posted by Susan Pascal (Editor), August 25, 2012 at 10:13 pm

Patch welcomes to our Local Voices. Stepenosky is the Las Virgenes Unified School District's new superintendent.

The Calabasas resident was brought on board as LVUSD's assistant superintendent of personnel six years ago and prior to that served as principal of Beverly Hills High School.

He is also the father of two LVUSD students.

Stepenosky will blog about topics that both involve and affect the schools in his district.

Thanks for your great perspective on this issue. We should all unplug once in awhile.

I think for the most part, people are mentally drained. Few take the time to sit back relax…Read More anymore. Even when we do have a minute to ourselves, we're constantly bombarded with emails, text messages and status updates. If we unplugged ourselves from our devices, we might find the serenity we all so desperately need. Turn your phone off, take a hike. Find a big tree next to a creek and sit under the shade. Enjoy nature. Listen to the sound of the water, the birds and the breeze as it moves through the brush. When you get back to nature, if only for a short time, you'll leave with a clear mind and feel revitalized. You're right---technology was supposed to make our lives more simple. Instead, it fuels the attention deficit disorder as our brain becomes a hashtag with a constant barrage of (often useless) news and updates. Although I'm young, I'd give anything to go back to the days where calling someone often led to a wild goose chase of finding an available payphone and spare change to make the call.
