Hi everyone! Welcome to a new podcast with your new hosts Alexis Rovner (‘26) and Muskaan Batra (‘26). In this episode, we delved into the beginning of the 2025-2026 school year with school activities, athletics updates, trending pop culture, and more! Stay tuned for future episodes!

CABE Executive Director Patrice McCarthy and President Leonard Lockhart talk about CT Public Schools and how kids face challenges with AI, attendance and more.

In this episode, we speak with early childhood educator, Lucy Chen, about the challenges of separation anxiety during the start of school. We explore how separation begins as early as infancy with object permanence and continues to evolve as children enter preschool and beyond. Lucy emphasizes that separation is not “one and done” but an ongoing process tied to trust, attachment, and new environments. Teachers play a key role in creating safe, predictable routines, building relationships, and honoring the wide range of ways children express their emotions—whether outwardly through tears and tantrums or inwardly through silence and withdrawal. The conversation also highlights the dual experience of parents navigating their own feelings of letting go, balancing expectations, and supporting their children while giving themselves grace. With strategies like modeling confidence, slowing down schedules, and fostering consistent routines, the episode underscores that separation is developmental, relational, and best approached with patience and compassion.  

The back-to-school honeymoon is over, and if your once angelic class is now fidgety and distracted, don't panic. You haven't lost your classroom magic! In this episode, we break down the September slump, why it's normal, and how to use it as an opportunity to boost engagement without burning yourself out. You'll learn five simple, low-prep ways to bring back the spark, plus how to spot the “check engine” lights that signal it's time to revisit routines. These micro-novelties keep curiosity alive while maintaining the structure students need.Prefer to read?

We had the opportunity to welcome back our friend, Kierre Bjorn Lindsay, as he led us this weekend.

We also speak on best practices for speaking with our children about how their day went and what they have learned beyond just asking “How was school today?”.

On this episode of Black Girls Evolve Podcast, I speak about my goals as a parent for this upcoming school year! Tap-In

As Christian moms, we feel the weight of sending our kids into the world—whether that's homeschooling, private school, Christian school, or public school. And with a new school year beginning, our mama hearts can easily slip into fear about what they might face: bullying, harmful ideologies, peer pressure, or simply the unknown. But here's the truth: we don't parent in fear—we parent in faith. We have authority through Jesus, and God has promised us His angel armies encamped around our children. He is their first and ultimate Protector. In this episode of the Revival Mom Podcast, I share a raw story from my own motherhood journey that reminded me how deeply I long to keep my kids safe. Then, we dig into powerful scripture-based prayers that you can declare over your children as they start the school year. We talk about: Why revival in the home begins with moms standing on God's truth. How to cover your children in prayer no matter what type of school they're in. Scriptural promises of angelic protection (Psalm 34:7, Psalm 91:11, 2 Kings 6:16-17, and more). How to guard their minds, hearts, friendships, identity, and hunger for God. The difference between protecting them physically and spiritually. You'll walk away equipped to pray bold, faith-filled prayers over your children—and to trust God as their ultimate Defender. This isn't about fear. This is about raising up a generation of kingdom warriors who walk in victory because their moms chose to stand on God's promises.  So grab your coffee, take a deep breath, and join me as we step into this school year with courage, faith, and the assurance that those who are with us are greater than those who are against us.

Across the country, K-12 teachers are prepping classrooms, reviewing lesson plans, and bracing for another school year that, for some, feels politically and personally charged. The Department of Education is slowly being dismantled by the Trump administration. In some districts, immigration officials have shown up at schools, which likely contributed to a rise in student absences last spring. And artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping what both teaching and learning look like. We hear directly from educators and what's at the top of their minds as they head into the new school year.
