We need schools to help all students reach their full potential. During the pandemic, nearly 17 million students were locked out of online learning because their families lack the home internet access necessary to support online learning. How can we assist and support our most vulnerable students and take what we learn into the future? Kevin talks with famed author and ‘godmother of Silicon Valley,’ Esther Wojcicki, and Dr. Tammy Pawloski who has crisscrossed this nation to support children of poverty. Esther, a noted educator, scholar, and all-around ambassador of U.S. education, discusses her latest book on how to raise successful children and Tammy shares her powerful message about those most often forgotten about in our country.
