It's the finale of season 8 and the end of our conversation about all things Powerful Student Care (at least for now).

As this season comes to close, Dr. Grant Chandler, and roundtable members, Kathy Mohney and Michael Pipa, talk about why Powerful Student Care is NOT an initiative. And if it isn't, just what is it any?

Join us as we bring a great season of PSC to it's conclusion. And, we can't wait to be back mid-winter, 2025!!

In this ninth episode of season nine, Dr. Chandler and round table panelists Penny Brockway and Michael Pipa unpack the last chapter of his book, Powerful Student Care: Honoring Each Learner as Distinctive & Irreplaceable, ASCD, 2023.

The last chapter of the book, co-written by Kathleen M. Budge, is a call to action to educators everywhere to disrupt the educational landscape and create a space that honors each student's humanity.

Do we have the courage to act? Can we take feelings of a lack of worth and alienation out of the educational experience?

Don't miss another great conversation. Take a listen.

In our eighth episode of this season, our panel explores the concept of bravery. The bravery to think about how each student is served by the enterprise of schooling. The bravery to think about how each student experiences the tenets of community. The bravery each parent exhibits when they entrust their children to us, the educators. Do we have the courage to act so that each student knows they are distinctive and irreplaceable?

In this episode we will surface powerful quotes from Chapter 8 of Powerful Student Care: Honoring Each Learner as Distinctive & Irreplaceable, published by ASCD in 2023, and written by Grant A. Chandler & Kathleen M. Budge.
