I really enjoyed your podcast. I like the fact that your enitre district is focusing on the future. Having conversations sparked by the book, “The World is Flat”, gets teachers thinking about reality and how teaching and learning can keep America competitive!

Superintendent, Ed McDonough’s speech was brilliant! I can’t wait to listen to it again. It is so thrilling to hear an educational leader really leading!! Bravo to Mr. McDonough and to Mr. Sprankle for podcasting this event. I’m going to be sharing this show with a lot of people I know. Please podcast all of his speeches!!
Thanks,
Deb
