The last three years have been unlike any we've experienced in education. Extreme teacher shortages, traumatized and disengaged students, demoralized educators at every level, and unprecedented outside interference in school policy. The challenges we now face are not responding to old solutions, strategies, and thinking. Join us as we speak with educators, school leaders, superintendents, and various education stakeholders who are already accepted that we're never going back to normal. From now on it will be forward to different.
