While You Were Teaching 10.17

It was a bit of a slow week for us with parent teacher conferences and the PSAT, but it was an exciting week around the web. Catch up with us and then check out what's going on in the larger education conversation.

Luckily, you can now listen while you read! We have a brand new Dallas Education Podcast with former DISD Principal Elizabeth Kastiel (L.G Pinkston High School). We talk teacher prep, school choice, and school discipline.
