For the first 30 years of my career in education students, parents, principals, colleagues all remained the same over the years. There were good years and there were tough years, but within what one might call the normal limits, things did not change. In 2019, I left k-12 education, because everything had changed.
A new episode of my podcast dropped... my target audience is folks who want to or who are working as IT professionals in schools.
