All Students Can Excel in New Directions (Ascend)Ascend College Prep was founded by Air Force Academy graduate and instructor Karin McWhorter in June 2020 as a small private school offering math education, standardized test prep, and tutoring. At the end of the first semester, Karin's 27 students encouraged her to find a way to broaden the scope of the school. The board of directors and the founding team are now working with the Education reEnvisioned BOCES (Board of Cooperative Education) to turn Ascend into a full public high school for 11-12 graders in Colorado Springs and the surrounding area.“I love teaching math because understanding how to approach a problem, apply a framework and find a solution is a critical life skill. I feel strongly that EVERY student is capable of success in mathematics, and once you understand “why” something works, the “how” becomes much easier. I have worked in public education for nearly 20 years, and I think we can do better with respect to STEM literacy, critical thinking and overall preparedness for future endeavors.”--Karin McWhorter Karin and her staff of incredible teachers can be reached at AscendCollegePrep.com.   ***Follow the Greg Krino Show here...GregKrino.comYouTubeInstagramFacebookTwitterLinkedInIf you enjoyed the podcast, please leave a short review on your podcast app. It takes only a minute, and it really helps convince popular guests to join me.If you have comments or ideas for the show, please contact me at gregkrinoshow@gmail.com.

This Week on “Postcards from Wayne State” a press conference about the “Northeast Nebraska Growing Together” initiative… a major new four-year scholarship and cooperative education program at Wayne State…created in cooperation with the Aksarben Foundation and the Norfolk business community. The President of the Aksarben Foundation Sandra Reding and Nebraska Governor Pete Ricketts were present for the announcement, both of whom you’ll hear. One note – we weren’t able to be there in person to record the event with our own equipment, so we are borrowing the audio from other media that covered the event, with permission. About half-way through the event, the audio starts picking up distortion, which we aren’t able to filter out. We apologize for this, but we think the “Northeast Nebraska Growing Together” initiative is important enough to present the full audio.
