Listen "CW: Impacting the Life & Trajectory of a Child"
Episode Synopsis
Dr. Tess chats with Carleton Washburne School Leadership, Dr. Andrew Fenton, Principal, and Mr. Ben Horwitz, Assistant Principal, who take us behind-the-scenes on leading a middle school–where no day is the same. They ponder the challenges of leading during the pandemic, yet highlight the resilience and positive practices that were developed as a result. “What is rewarding about this job–when I first started as a teacher and is still similar today–is the reality that you can make a difference in a kid’s life,” says Dr. Fenton. Thinking of the educators who impacted his own life and being able to serve students as an educator himself, Mr. Horwitz notes that hiring the next generation of teachers is a favorite part of his role, “We bring in new teachers, who make this school great and have the same connections with kids over the years.”
