The Secret Life of Teachers

The Secret Life of Teachers

Have you ever wondered what your teachers were up to when they leave school at the end of the day? Is it possible they're working towards a black belt in jiu jitsu, attending a Snoop Dogg concert, or reminiscing with friends about their Division 1 college football years? Could they be having food fights at home with their kids, coaching a team, or taking classes themselves? In this podcast, students interview teachers at Glenview Middle School, and get to know them on a more personal level.
