Summer School Saga

The People’s Champ

Principal Intern Jasmine Russell walks us through her transitions through education, finding her place and how she remains anchored to her cause: the kids!

Summer School Saga

First episode of season two and I’m joined with a familiar voice, Mr. Alex Bryant! We discuss summer school, preparation for the coming school year and new-age teachers being lowkey wild!

Gotta Shake This Year Off

Whelp. It's summer time and that means time to remember the things that bring you joy and enjoy them. As we wrap-up season one of the podcast, I am so grateful for the community of educators (current and former) that are sharing their experiences and helping other educators feel seen and understood. It's wonderful to witness. Another wonderful things to witness: flights, roadtrips and margaritas without having to wake up early and teach. Enjoy your summer everyone! See you in August!

Students Are People, Too

One of the best parts of being an educator is learning more than you teach. The minute you think you know it all, you're doomed. My guest, Professor Toya Dixon speaks on how she helps remind her college students of their worth in and out of the classroom, to question authority and how we as educators must give the same courtesies we expect.

The Principal of the Matter

Higher Levels, Bigger Devils. Bringing positive and sustainable change isn’t easy, but with assistant principals like our guest Estella Johnson, it’ll happen. This week’s episode gives us a glimpse into the nuances of our school admin and reminds us to take the perspective of our leadership, because the work ain’t easy!
