Covid closures completely upended the school year. And now, as we consider heading back new year, we have no idea what that might look like. But regardless of the form school takes 2020-21, we can and should be asking bigger questions. How can we take the lessons we've learned during these closures and reimagine schools in a better way - a way that truly prepares students and connects with them in a meaningful way? Join us as we discuss these important questions with Dave Stuart Jr. Get notes and links at www.teach4theheart.com/146.
