School administrators discuss local education challenges on WTIP

Are our local schools becoming more centralized due to state and federal mandates? Do standardized tests help or hinder teachers and their students? What does creating the world’s best workforce really mean?

Join WTIP’s  Jay Andersen when we explore the big picture of education as well as how two of our schools apply all those rules and policies. ISD166 Superintendent Beth Schwarz and Great Expectations Charter School Administrator Peter James talk about responding to the challenges of local education.

First Thursday Community Conversation – “Flexibility, Accountability and Creativity in Local Education.” Only on WTIP North Shore Community Radio.
