S5 Episode 5: Arizona Legislature is Back in Session
This week’s episode is not only informative, but you will have an opportunity to get to know Chris Kotterman of the Arizona School Boards Association on a personal level. Listen in to find out about his hobbies like band and scuba diving! Donnie and Angelia have an in depth conversation with Mr. Kotterman about the impact of extra curricular activities in schools and how they are funded at local levels. This week we also explore what is currently happening at the Arizona State Legislature around English language instruction, school funding, and teacher evaluations. Join us to stay up to date on legislative issues that impact today’s Arizona educators and students.
Being an educator in the 21st century is indescribably complex. There’s a constant pressure to meet standards and help students achieve, but there’s also a need to allow learners to color outside the lines in an effort to prompt creativity. To support educators along the continuum, the Center developed “3Ps in a Pod” to further dissect practice, policy, and passion in the field of education.
