Listen "Small Schools and Big Ideas"
Episode Synopsis
Today on BustED Pencils, Drs. Tim Slekar and Johnny Lupinacci are joined by a very special guest. Rural Superintendent Mike Beighley of Whitehall School District in western Wisconsin has come to tell us about some exciting changes happening in rural schools. Mike and his organization, Liftoffs Learning, are taking a step back from the business-as-usual approach to education and embarking on a bold journey to reshape how schools approach learning. Mike may not represent the largest school district in the country, but he and his team are proving that small schools and big ideas can make a difference.
Producer Jakob has brought back the show's old intro voice over in an exciting and unexpected move that Tim and Johnny welcome with open arms.
