Dr. Pete Gorman & Dr. Robert Avossa, The Forum for Educational Leadership

And so to episode 21, our season finale - and it's a bumper ep to go out on! I am so excited for this two-hander, as I get to share the amazing duo of Dr. Peter Gorman (https://www.linkedin.com/in/peter-c-gorman/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/peter-c-gorman/]) and Dr. Robert Avossa, Ed.D. (https://www.linkedin.com/in/avossa/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/avossa/]), two of the co-founders of The Forum for Educational Leadership (https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-forum-for-educational-leadership/ [https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-forum-for-educational-leadership/]). So much knowledge, so much leadership insight, and the only pizza recommendation you'll ever need! Don't say we don't take care of you, dear listeners!

Dr. Tim Hudson, Founder, Pro Campus Events

“I feel like I’m trying to create the world I thought I was born into”, goes a long way to telling you just how amazing of an educational leader and great human being our latest Educate Me! podcast guest, Dr. Tim Hudson, is. As a former classroom teacher, curriculum coordinator, chief learning officer, and now founder of Campus Pro Events, Dr. Hudson has dedicated his professional life to not only providing opportunities for every student to learn, but to ensuring equity for all. Which, in large part, is what makes him such an awesome guy! And his ‘Magic Wand’ answer might be the best we’ve ever had…

Dr. Brenda Lewis, Superintendent, Fridley Public Schools

Perhaps the most powerful Educate Me! podcast episode we've ever recorded, because our guests' influence has unexpectedly, but necessarily, gone far beyond education leadership. Brenda Lewis, Ph.D. (https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-turner-a7b74522/# [https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-turner-a7b74522/#]), Superintendent of Fridley Public School District (https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-turner-a7b74522/# [https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-turner-a7b74522/#]), MN, was thrust into the national and global spotlight earlier this year when ICE came to town. Dr. Lewis was presented with an unenviable task, but one that she embraced on behalf of her school district, her community, and in an effort to protect every child under her care. What motivates her? Where did the courage come from to lead in such challenging circumstances? And what would she do with a magic wand...

Dr. Jennifer Collier, Superintendent, Kansas City Public Schools

Passion. Purpose. Powerhouse! Dr. Jennifer Collier (https://www.linkedin.com/in/drjencollier/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/drjencollier/]), Superintendent of Kansas City Public Schools (https://www.linkedin.com/company/kansas-city-public-schools/ [https://www.linkedin.com/company/kansas-city-public-schools/]), Missouri, has the first two in abundance and consistently shows up as the third for her students, staff, and community. Setting high expectations for students, unifying the school district and city around academic purpose, and creating a culture of community togetherness to help pass a hugely historic Bond that will impact an entire generation: just a few of the things that define and characterize her leadership. This is one Educate Me! podcast episode you do not want to miss!
