Months into an investigation, the U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights has decided that East High School's all-gender restrooms do, in fact, violate Title IX. The feds gave DPS ten days from last Friday to comply with a resolution to convert the bathrooms back to single gender — and while Superintendent Alex Marrero responded by doubling down on the district's support of trans students, he has yet to comment specifically on whether DPS will follow through. Host Bree Davies and producer Olivia Jewell Love dig into the bathroom battle, plus discuss new data from RTD that shows customer complaints about open drug use along the transit system are down dramatically. Will it be enough to bring ridership back to pre-pandemic levels?  For even more news from around the city, subscribe to our morning newsletter Hey Denver at denver.citycast.fm.

In this episode of the Better Learning Podcast, Carla Cummins is joined by her daughter Jennifer Cummins and special guests Candace Seda and Stephanie Seda for a fun and thought-provoking dive into Disney's 2006 cultural phenomenon High School Musical. With a multigenerational panel of educators, designers, and education advocates, the group explores how the film's catchy tunes, teen drama, and feel-good message intersect with real-life high school experiences. Set at the fictional East High School, High School Musical follows Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez as they challenge stereotypes, break out of their expected roles, and redefine what it means to belong. The conversation goes beyond choreography to unpack deeper themes of identity, student voice, peer pressure, and the often rigid boxes students are placed in. Carla, Jenny, Candace, and Stephanie reflect on how the film's message of “breaking free” still resonates with students today. They discuss the importance of cultivating environments where young people feel seen, safe, and empowered to pursue their full potential—whether on the court, in the lab, or on stage. Together, they celebrate the magic of student-centered learning while confronting the real challenges schools face in living that out.   Takeaways: Students are more than stereotypes. Just like Troy and Gabriella, students thrive when given the freedom to explore interests outside of their “assigned” labels. Schools should nurture the whole child—not just the athlete, the scholar, or the artist. When students try something outside of the norm, they need allies—peers, teachers, and parents—who encourage them to break free from expectations and find their voice. Culture eats curriculum for breakfast. A strong, inclusive school culture is the foundation for student growth. The environment at East High showed how cliques and unwritten rules can restrict potential. Candace reflected on how High School Musical—with its vibrant sets, energetic common spaces, and distinct zones for different student identities—influences how designers think about school environments today. The film reminds us that the physical space of a school tells a story. When designing schools, it's not just about functionality; it's about creating places where students feel inspired, seen, and connected.     About Candace Seda, NOMA, AIA, NCARB: Candace Seda is an Atlanta-born architect with almost a decade of professional experience in the K-12, higher education, civic, and medical office sectors. She earned her B.S. Arch and M. Arch from the Georgia Institute of Technology, specializing in graphic design and sustainability. As the daughter of an educator, she channels her passion for education and community to create inspiring learning environments, positively impacting the educational experience for future generations. Candace leverages her graphic design expertise to craft visually compelling and cohesive spaces through experiential graphics. Known for leading conversations on inclusion and equity, Candace aims to make quality design accessible to those historically excluded or overlooked, benefiting both clients and industry professionals.  She accomplishes this through her work at Craig Gaulden Davis Architecture, organizations like VANOMA and Diversity Architecture, as well as her design firm Candace Seda Design.   About Stephanie Seda: Stephanie Seda, a 26-year-old 5th-grade teacher based in Athens, GA, is deeply committed to empowering Black and Brown students to become confident leaders. With a strong passion for Social Studies education, Stephanie strives to make history come alive for her students, encouraging them to engage with the world around them. Outside the classroom, Stephanie is an avid reader and TV enthusiast, always ready for a thoughtful conversation. When she's not teaching or discussing the latest book or show, you can find her singing or roller skating, embracing her creative side and enjoying life to the fullest.   Learn More About Craig Gaulden Davis | PBK Website: https://cgdarch.com/       Learn More About Candace Seda, NOMA, AIA, NCARB: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/candaceseda/   Learn More About Jennifer Cummins: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennifer-cummins-/         Connect with host, Carla Cummins: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carla-cummins-01449659/     Episode 228 of the Better Learning Podcast Kevin Stoller is the host of the Better Learning Podcast and Co-Founder of Kay-Twelve, a national leader for educational furniture.

Welcome back to the Akron Podcast, where we tackle the tough stories affecting our community. Today is April 11th, 2024, and we have a difficult topic. This isn't an April Fool's Day prank—it's a serious incident involving Tavion Koonce-Williams, a 15-year-old East High School student whom an Akron police officer shot under contentious circumstances.Reports indicate that Williams was carrying what appeared to be a gun—but was later revealed to be a toy—as he was walking home. A concerned citizen's call to the police led to a confrontation that ended with Williams being shot in the hand by Officer Ryan Westlake, a cop with a checkered past, including being previously fired and reinstated.The bodycam footage is out for public scrutiny and raises alarming concerns. Why do our teens feel the need to carry fake guns for protection? And why was Officer Westlake, with a history of unprofessional conduct, allowed back on the force, only to be involved in another controversial shooting? We'll delve into Westlake's disciplinary record, examine the city's handling of the case, and look at how this repeats patterns we've seen in previous incidents.It's a tragic story with far-reaching implications, and it leaves us asking hard questions about police accountability, community safety, and the deep-seated issues that lead to such incidents. Join us as we explore this crucial matter on the Akron Podcast.Sources:https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/news/2024/04/08/akron-police-officer-who-shot-teen-was-fired-reinstated-in-2021/73242042007/Mentioned in this episode:Start Your Podcast TodayJoin the School of Podcasting When you join the School of Podcasting you can quit worrying about: Are people going to listen to me?

Alma Fonda Fina is one of the buzziest new restaurants in town — but a lawsuit over the potential theft of “trade secrets” and a non-compete clause could shut the operation down. Turns out My Neighbor Felix isn't feeling so neighborly towards its former employees, and now the two LoHi eateries will duke it out in court. Meanwhile, Casa Bonita celebrates 50 years (but you still can't make a reservation!), and a new push to ban assault weapons has East High School students taking the fight to social media. Host Bree Davies and producer Paul Karolyi dig into these stories, plus your comments on Buc-ee's and Johnson's Corner. We played the audio from this East Students Demand Action Instagram reel. Bree mentioned past City Cast Denver episodes on the gun debate featuring East students Clara and Gracie Taub and Senator Tom Sullivan.  For even more news from around the city, subscribe to our morning newsletter Hey Denver at denver.citycast.fm.

St. Louis television station KMOV reports a girl whose head was repeatedly slammed into the concrete street near Hazelwood East high school in north St. Louis County is in critical condition. News reports indicate a 15-year-old has been arrested and charged with assault, but is in juvenile custody. Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey (R) describes the attack as horrific, saying "this evil and compete disregard for human life has no place in Missouri or anywhere." General Bailey tweeted this weekend that he's praying for the injured girl, saying "the criminal should be charged and tried as an adult" and that if the victim dies, she should be charged with homicide. General Bailey joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Mid-Missouri", telling listeners that Missouri's juvenile system must be reformed. He notes juveniles were allegedly involved in February's mass shooting after the Chiefs Super Bowl victory rally, an incident that killed one and wounded 21 others. General Bailey tells listeners that in the past five years, the number of Missouri youth committed to the state Division of Youth Services (DYS) has plummeted and that DYS has had to close multiple facilities. He also addressed the southern border and Planned Parenthood during the "Wake Up" interview:

In this one, Cody talks to Anthony Black and Jerry Smyth. They both grew up skateboarding in Anchorage in the ‘90s, before there were really any designated areas for skaters. Besides summer skateparks like the one in the outside Ben Boeke ice rink and the Girdwood skatepark, 40 miles outside of Anchorage, spots were few. So, in the summer they skated places like Abbott Loop Elementary, Hanshew Middle School and the flatbank and box set-up at their buddy Micah Hollinger's house. In the winter, it was indoor garages, and before 9/11 Elmendorf Air Force Base had an indoor skatepark that was open to the public. And when they were feeling ambitious, they drove to Nikiski, 170 miles outside of Anchorage, to skate a couple ramps and flat-bars at Brandon Chenault's warehouse. Jerry says it was brutal. He remembers people getting so desperate that they'd break into the University of Alaska Anchorage to skate in the winter months. It was a struggle to be a skater back then because you had to really want it.   Skating was an integral part of Anthony and Jerry's lives. It's what they spent most of their adolescent and teenage years doing and it's where they met most of their friends — many of them they're still friends with to this day. And to be part of that crew, you had to have thick skin — they were hard on each other, but underneath all the ruthless jokes, there was always love. If you got a nickname, however cruel, you were usually in; if you got made fun of and you could handle it, you were in. And in the middle of all this — the skating and the hating — they were getting shots for the Boarderline snow and skate videos. It was a ritual that, in the best of cases, ended with a full video part that premiered at places like the Fourth Avenue Theatre. Looking back on those videos now, Anthony says his favorite clip is probably his switch heelflip down the 10-stair at East High School and Jerry says it was the crooked grind he did down the handrail at O'Malley Elementary.

This past week, the Superior Telegram released it's 25th episode of Archive Dive, which is a monthly history podcast where we “dive” into the archives of historic events, people and places in Superior and Douglas County.  For this month's episode, Telegram reporter Maria Lockwood and local historian and retired librarian Teddie Meronek explore how a federal program helped shape Superior. During the bleakest days of the Great Depression, President Franklin D. Roosevelt created the Works Progress Administration, or WPA. “The New Deal agency” employed millions of job seekers, with an average salary of about $41.57 cents per month. Through public works projects like the airport, a baseball stadium and Itasca School, the program helped shape Superior's landscape. But, it also helped preserve its history.  Maria and Teddie discuss the benefits of the program and the challenges of the times. Some of the buildings and projects remain today. The Great Depression started in 1929 and things had changed throughout the country, including in Superior. “If you look through old newspapers, in the late 1920s, you see that Superior was booming," said Meronek. "There were all these new businesses opening up. You go and you look a couple of years later and they are all gone, so it was tough times. The WPA did not start until 1935, so there was a gap there. Four or five years where it was hard for everyone. No jobs. No money. The WPA came in and things started to change.” You can find that episode at superiortelegram.com or wherever you also get this podcast. You can find addtional episodes here. In case you missed last month's episode, we are resharing it here. In January, Maria and Teddie explored the histories of East High School and Nelson Dewey School in Superior and some of their notable graduates. Enjoy!

This past week, the Superior Telegram released it's 24th episode of Archive Dive, which is a monthly history podcast where we “dive” into the archives of historic events, people and places in Superior and Douglas County.  For this month's episode, Telegram reporter Maria Lockwood and local historian and retired librarian Teddie Meronek explore East and Nelson Dewey high schools in Superior as they discuss the building of both schools, how the students and teachers survived the Great Depression and World War II, as well as the rivalry that grew between East High School and Central High School. "I grew up in East End so I remember that it was just like a small town, and the schools in East End weren't built next to businesses, they were built in neighborhoods and they were all surrounded by homes," said Meronek. "East End had a high school, it had a public grade school and two parochial schools, within blocks of each other and their business district included a movie theater and East End had the only branch library — an actual library building — and we had a dime store, dry cleaners and a bank, two drug stores, two hardware stores, restaurants, two hair salons, dentists, doctors. I mean, it was like a small town in itself." You can find that episode at superiortelegram.com or wherever you also get this podcast. You can find addtional episodes here. In case you missed last month's episode, we are resharing it here. In December, Maria and Teddie looked back at the lives behind lens' of three famous photographers from Superior: David Francis Barry, Ray Jones and Esther Bubley. Enjoy!

In the wake of the March 23 shooting at East High School, thousands of students walked out of class in protest, and the school board started what became an emotionally charged, highly controversial, three-month debate on the possible return of police to Denver Public Schools. They ultimately voted, 4-3, that police should be a “persistent presence” in our schools, but not everyone is happy with that outcome. So today on the show, host Bree Davies speaks with the board's vice president, Aoun'tai Anderson, about how the debate played out and why he thinks his fellow board members reversed their position since police were removed from schools in 2020. Bree mentioned Bike to Work Day and DPD's new anti-theft bike registration system, as well as the official designation of La Raza Park as a historic cultural district. For a deep dive into the last three months of debate on the role of police in schools, Melanie Asmar has been covering all the twists and turns for Chalkbeat.  For even more news from around the city, subscribe to our morning newsletter Hey Denver by texting “Denver” to 66866 Follow us on Twitter: @citycastdenver Or instagram: @citycastdenver Chat with other listeners on reddit: r/CityCastDenver Text or leave us a voicemail with your name and neighborhood, and you might hear it on the show: (720) 500-5418‬ Looking to advertise on City Cast Denver?
