Our Kids Our Schools
Приєднався 8 вер 2023
A podcast focused on fostering positive school communities. School communities are more than students, parents, and teachers, they also include businesses, taxpayers, neighbors, non-profits, business owners, school board members, school administration (principals), law makers, and department of education employees. All of these individuals impact our school communities. We demystify the education landscape by talking about all the interactions, relationships, decisions, and roles of all the components within our school communities.

What is the second thing

Philip O"Beien Elementary School in Lakeland Florida
I’ve never worked for a principal who didn’t want to get to know families. PS what is this lady’s role in this context?
That's great you've only worked for principals who work to get to know families. The woman in the video is a parent sharing her experience regarding what she observed at her school--she's a parent, an educator, former school board member, and leader of the statewide parent association (Idaho PTA).
Very true my😊 kids principle is awesome!
My kids principal does this! She man's the cross walk to get to school.
That's why i love my kid's principle.
School vouchers is the only way
The problem with allowing districts to have their own control over the budget is that they can use it for whatever they want even if the government or taxpayers disagree with its usage. This is how porn got into elementary schools in California and Colorado.
School=trial of hell
Your content is fantastic! Thanks to your videos, I’ve discovered so many amazing luxury brands and products. Keep them coming! "😍😍
❤❤❤❤
Newsflash. If you give your employee a day off they don’t want to go volunteer. We have other things to take care of. 🙄
It’s been done for years…
