Guest: Michael Bonner
We had this talk with Michael planned a number of weeks ago. We obviously could never have expected that America would be gripped not just in the middle of a medical pandemic but now a societal pandemic as well.

We learned a lot from Michael and we're so happy he took the time to share his voice with us during this time.

Guest: Eric Kalenze
There are a lot of lessons throughout this whole podcast episode that tie into each other but the overwhelming sense is that we're living through a time where you can't just take someone else's work, or ideas, or plans, and use them in your school or district and expect success. Eric's book "What The Academy Taught Us" is his story of what they did to help students who were on the verge of leaving school entirely, before it was too late. It may not be the solution for everyone, but we're convinced the ideas in the book will work for a lot of people.
