Introducing swampED
For
eight years, President Obama made the White House a place that brought
people together -- incredible students, parents, principals, district
leaders, school counselors, teachers, college presidents, professors,
business leaders, and more. And after January 2017, the inspiring
stories we heard and the incredible people we met no longer had a place
to share their experiences and ideas with folks across the country. Now
they do, thanks to the new education podcast swampED, hosted by three former Obama White House staffers, Eric Waldo, Stephanie Sprow Owens, and Kyle Lierman.
These
stories constantly remind and inspire us of people’s commitment to
education. It is the ultimate bedrock of our society, one that people
are passionately fighting to make better. At the White House, we were
fortunate to get to shine a spotlight on some of those incredible
education advocates. We want to continue to shine that spotlight and
talk about what’s working and how others can get involved, and hopefully
be inspired along the way. We hope you’ll join us.
Guests
include former Secretary of Education, John B. King, Jr; the 2018
School Counselor of the Year, Kirsten Perry; chair of the U.S.
Commission on Civil Rights, Catherine Lhamon; and the CEO of College
Advising Corps, Nicole Hurd. swampED is available on iTunes, Google Play, and Spotify. Subscribe, download, and rate it today. Follow @swampEDpod on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.
