BREAK: CU of GA – ESOG STORY 1: The Cobb County School District recently named a new school, the Betty Gray Middle School, in honor of the late educator Betty Gray. Initially, Betty's daughter, Della-Lisa Gray, felt indifferent due to her grief. However, her perception changed when she visited the school. Betty Gray Middle School was established in August, serving students in grades 6-8. It is a tribute to Betty Gray's remarkable career, from her beginnings as a teacher to becoming one of the district's first female administrators and principals. The school underwent a $9 million renovation before opening. Betty Gray's dedication to education and her ability to teach English made a lasting impact. She also served 16 years on the Cobb Board of Education, representing South Cobb. Betty Gray is remembered as a trailblazer and advocate for her community. Her legacy inspires others to take the lead in their own lives.......…….Get more stories like this from mdjonline.com     STORY 2: The Atlanta Braves, despite having the best record in Major League Baseball and a potent offense, faced an early postseason exit for the second consecutive year, raising questions about their preparedness and ability to execute. General Manager Alex Anthopoulos is tasked with finding solutions to avoid such outcomes in the future. The team's historic offense underperformed in the playoffs against the Philadelphia Phillies, despite leading MLB in runs and home runs during the regular season. While the Braves' lineup appears strong, they struggled in clutch situations during the NLDS, but Anthopoulos remains confident in their abilities. Decisions regarding free agents like Eddie Rosario and Charlie Morton will influence the team's offseason plans.   STORY 3: Zaid Pineda Santana, a Marietta resident, is facing charges of trafficking methamphetamine. Santana allegedly sold approximately 1,000.9 grams (around 2.2 pounds) of methamphetamine to a confidential source from the Drug Enforcement Administration during a controlled purchase operation on September 14. The transaction took place at the Ivy Commons apartment complex in Marietta. Although Santana is not listed in Cobb County jail records, the DEA issued an arrest warrant for him. Information about his bond status is not available at this time. .......................…..(pause) We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

The opening was delayed by two months due to supply chain issues. The school, funded by special-purpose local-option sales tax revenues, now features 61 permanent classrooms, more restrooms, a larger gym, additional art rooms, and two playground sets. The old building was too small to accommodate the growing student population. The expanded capacity allows the school district to handle future growth without major redistricting. Teachers and staff are excited about the improved facilities, and the move has been positively received by students.   STORY 5: The Marietta Community Reads program encourages community-wide shared reading for young members of the community. The initiative involves 12 childcare centers in Marietta, including the Emily Lembeck Early Learning Center, focusing on the same books and themes each month. In October, the theme revolves around community collaboration. Parents are encouraged to read and engage with their children while discussing what it means to work together as a community. The recommended books for October include "Milo Imagines the World," "Stray Dog," "Maybe Something Beautiful," "Last Stop on Market Street," and "Thank You, Omu." Families are also encouraged to partake in community-building activities like sharing artwork, donating books, and baking goods for neighbors. The initiative aims to enhance children's literacy and promote community engagement.     We'll be back in a moment Break: DRAKE – INGLE 4 – POWERS   STORY 6: Leah And now here is Bruce Jenkins' conversation with Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on essential oils.   STORY 7: We'll have closing comments after this.   Break: JRM (KENNESAW) – Henssler :60 Signoff- Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Marietta Daily Journal podcast.

You all met Theron Cosgrave and Principal Ally Rocco in episodes 67, and 77. Since October of 2019, I’ve been following this group of educators in California’s central valley as they work to build one of the most innovative middle school models I’ve heard anything about in recent decades. MAD Tech characterizes some of the most important questions in education for me. Here’s just one example in my mind: What does it mean to intersect great learning design with great design for physical spaces in this age where we've learned so much about how the two can complement one another?In this episode we’re joined by Laura Quiroz, Dean of Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment, to hear more about how the instructional model for MadTech has been forced to flex, and more about what they're learning in relation to the core principles of their design that they've been able to carry over in spite of COVID. One of a few bright spots that the school is leveraging and that came up in our conversation is their use of VDI. We didn't get to come back to this in the conversation, though Allyson and Laura messaged me moments after it came up in our conversation to answer my question about the acronym. VDI stands for Virtual Desktop Infrastructure. I bring it up again here to ask that if you or someone you know are an expert with VDI, I'd love to hear from them on social media. Share resources you may have about case studies that have worked using VDI to extend access to software that may not run easily on a chromebook. I'll share those resources in an upcoming episode.
