Episode Synopsis

A huge sacrifice I made moving into district leadership was a direct connection with students. Building relationships with students had always been one of my greatest strengths and I miss it. Consequently, I always love having student guests on this podcast. Today's guest is high school junior Tula Bradley-Prindiville. In many ways Tula is a typical well-rounded and high achieving student, taking all honors and AP courses, getting good grades, and pursuing interest in the arts. However, she is also willing to step off the beaten path to pursue some unique opportunities. Last year she was one of four female students who entered and won a national innovation competition. This year she is heading off for a semester program where she will shed her phone and the traditional trappings of school to rough it and learn through place-based education.
