Cooperant Learning Podcast Episode: The Kalamazoo Academy for Behavioral and Academic Success

Hosts: Kyle Steury & Dr. Steve Sparks

In this episode, we sat down with Dr. Margo Uwayo of the Kalamazoo Academy for Behavioral and Academic Success (KABAS) — a K–6 school that blends behavior analysis with education to support both behavior intervention and academic skill acquisition. We dive into the origin story of KABAS, how applied behavior analysis can be a tool for both learning and behavior, the legal hurdles to launching a school rooted in science, and how educators and behavior analysts can work together.
