Hello everyone! I had trouble naming this two-part episode with Todd Nesloney. On one hand, I wanted to simply call it, Stories From Webb, since that’s the name of Todd’s fantastic new book. But as I edited the show this week, I realized this discussion was bigger than that.
We didn’t just discuss his book.
Truly, we discussed how community, and supporting communities, can be more powerful than any one book, idea, or person.
We discussed how amazing educators are.
We gushed over the Ron Clark Academy (both in part one and two).
We give shout outs to all the teachers not on a podcast, or who don’t have books coming out, because of how great and amazing they are.
We signal boost great educators doing their thing on the internet, like Adam Dovico, Hope and Wade King, Mary Howard, Kim Bearden, and Colby Sharp (part one and two for all).
We unpack what it means to lead a school.
We affirm what it means to be an educator.
I couldn’t be more excited for you all to hear this two-part episode, and nab Todd’s newest book, Stories from Webb: The Ideas, Passions, and Convictions of a Principal and His School Family
