Rory Manning, the principal at Sachem High School East, was a guest speaker at the #140 Conference held at Touro Law School in Central Islip Thursday.

The conference is held regionally for people to discuss their social media strategies with the use of Twitter in their professions. Manning brought a unique perspective about using Twitter in the educational field as he has launched @SachemHSEast and @LI_Principal in the past year.

“It takes a network of learners to educate a child,” he said, referring to the social media world as an opportunity for students in the 21st century to use new tools to better themselves and adapt to the new working nature of society.
