This season, Season 2, we will take you back behind the curtains as the Delta Variant of COVID-19 presents new challenges and we explore the oftentimes conflicting desires, politics and directives that meet with a community's desire to educate students to the highest and best of our ability.

You'll meet parents, teachers, staff, local health officials and students to help bring to life some of the excitement we experience each day along with the real challenges and tradeoffs that keep us working late each night.

These issues are by nature controversial and we are very aware that  our school community is not monolithic. In no way do we intend to make political statements or provoke arguments. Our bias here is simply around making decisions that will allow the greatest number of students the highest level of education that we can provide. Aside from that, our goal is simply to take you into the decisions themselves as we face them, and do our best to explain why we are making them. In the end, we are not perfect, but we work incredibly hard and our main focus is on the education of our students, taking all health and safety precautions into consideration.

Our first episodes will focus on the science around children and COVID, online education and how and when we switch classes to a hybrid of online and in-person. We will plan to post new episodes every Tuesday for the run of the season.

We hope that you'll join us, share the episodes and help us to grow a deep and productive dialogue.

Stay safe out there and as always, Protect the Pack!
