In this episode of Rethink Possible, host Bob McDowell interviews Superintendent Sara Paul of North Branch Area Public Schools and David Gryte, the president of the North Branch Education Association. They discuss their teacher-registered apprentice program that launched in their district as a partnership between the school district and the teacher's union in collaboration with local colleges. Their program addresses the teacher shortage by providing a pathway for paraprofessional educators and other non-licensed school staff to become licensed teachers. Tied into the district's strategic plan, the union, board, and administration all support this program and work together to ensure sustainability.
