It takes a village—a phrase we’ve all heard when it comes to raising children. This wisdom rings even truer when it comes to educating them.

In this episode, Amanda and Lisa explore building a community both inside and outside of the classroom to ensure the best education for all students. They explore what a PLC (Professional Learning Community) looks like for teachers and students in their classroom. They also dig into building a strong foundation with parents, no matter what language they speak, and how to communicate with them so the “village” is all on the same page. 

We Discuss

• Time, space, and trust required for a successful PLC (Professional Learning Community)
• The resilience needed to keep students trying new things, even if they originally failed
• Fostering meaningful, lasting relationships with parents
