Episode Notes

Season Two opens with the three of us dusting off the microphones, forgetting how to introduce ourselves, and immediately diving into the deep end: mental health in schools, the crisis facing students and teachers, and why everything seems to be on fire. We talk SEL, trauma, the impossible pressure on educators, and the growing push toward community schools as a way to actually meet human needs instead of just…performing education.

There’s history, there’s snark, there’s a surprising number of references to cannons, and there’s a whole lot of honesty about the state of things. If you work in a school, send a kid to a school, or ever went to a school, you’ll probably relate.

Season Two starts by asking the same question we always end up circling back to: How do we build systems that actually help people thrive?
