Public schools provide more than support services. They carry a legal and moral promise to serve every child, regardless of ability, need, or circumstance.In this episode, we explore why IDEA matters, how public schools protect vulnerable learners, and why leaders must tell that story with confidence.#EducationalLeader,Kim “When students are well led, they learn well.”Website: http://kimdmoore.comBook: http://leadershipchairbook.comLinkedIn:  https://linkedin.com/in/kimdmooreYouTube: https://youtube.com/@EducationalLeaderThe views shared herein are solely those of Dr. Kim D.

What happens when the path you imagined for yourself turns into something completely different? In this episode, Joanna sits down with Risher Reddick, Executive Director of Canopy College Coaching, to explore his unexpected journey from studying acting and theater to helping neurodivergent college students navigate higher education and early adulthood. Risher shares how skills he developed as an actor—listening, presence, curiosity, and adaptability—became the foundation of his work supporting young adults. Together, they discuss redefining success, the importance of allowing young people room to struggle and grow, and why finding the right support can make all the difference during the transition to independence. This conversation offers encouragement for parents and students alike, reminding us that success is not about following someone else's blueprint—it's about creating your own. Risher's Resources:Risher's Website: ReddPrepCanopy's Website: Canopy College Coaching Canopy's Instagram: @canopycollegecoachingCanopy's Facebook: Canopy College CoachingConnect with Joanna Lilley  Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Email: joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #MentalHealthAwareness #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #CollegeCoaching #AcademicCoaching #Neurodiversity #ExecutiveFunctioning

How can institutions define and measure belonging? What are inspirational examples of programs, spaces, and support services that foster it? How is student belonging changing, and how can folks adapt? In a LinkedIn Live Webinar, Elliot Felix talked through these questions with Suzanne Rivera the President at Macalester College, Jeff Doyle the Executive Director of Student Support at UT Austin, and James Vasquez the Associate Dean of Operations and Strategy at the USC Annenberg School. They share different perspectives along with the programs and places they've used to foster belonging and drive student success – from environments to athletics to communications and more. Episode Highlights include: [5:47] The Book's Big Ideas - Host Elliot Felix defines student belonging using research proving that connected first-year students are 41% more likely to be retained into year two. [8:18] The Power of One Question - Jeff Doyle shares how asking students if they feel like they belong is five times more predictive of retention than 100 other variables. [15:06] Spaces Built for Synergy - James Vasquez explains how USC Annenberg used cross-collaborative stakeholder workshops to design a highly utilized, multi-departmental campus facility. [19:11] Mapping the Student Journey - President Suzanne Rivera details how Macalester College used student heat maps to transform their main administrative building into a student-facing hub. [44:31] Human Connections Over Bots - The panel analyzes why automated AI chatbots are short-term fixes, advocating instead for peer-to-peer leadership and scaling high-touch human relationships.

UW-Milwaukee pauses plan to merge student centers until 2027. What does this mean for DEI and student support at UWM?

Joe Reed, founder of Pulse, discusses how his student support platform is transforming the way schools identify and respond to struggling students. Rather than relying solely on traditional metrics like grades and attendance, Pulse brings together teachers, parents, counsellors, and therapists around a shared, real-time picture of each student's wellbeing. Joe shares the story behind the platform — rooted in over 15 years of community resilience work across South Africa and the United States — and explains how Pulse is designed to reduce teacher burden while delivering faster, more targeted support to the students who need it most.Five TakeawaysLate data leads to late intervention. Grades and attendance are important, but they're lagging indicators. By the time they dip, a student may already be in crisis. Pulse aims to surface earlier, softer signals before problems escalate.Every student gets an individualised plan. Rather than one-size-fits-all reporting, Pulse builds a personalised plan for each student, with specific goals tracked by everyone involved in that child's support network.Voice reporting is a game-changer for teachers. Instead of filling out forms after a long school day, teachers can speak into their phone for 30 seconds — capturing richer context in a fraction of the time. This makes compliance feel less like a burden and more like a natural part of the day.Pulse connects with existing school systems. Rather than asking schools to start from scratch, Pulse is designed to integrate alongside the tools already in use — lowering the barrier to adoption and making the transition as smooth as possible.The "why" runs deeper than edtech. Joe's motivation stems from over 15 years of community resilience work, first in South Africa and then across the US. Pulse wasn't built to sell software — it was built to restore communities by empowering the frontline educators and support staff within them.Chapters:00:00 - A New Approach to Teaching06:00 - Challenges in Educational Reporting and Support08:51 - Integrating Technology in Education18:32 - Introduction to the Learning Management System22:32 - The Intersection of Education and Community Development28:55 - Empowerment in Educationhttps://www.pulseconnect.ushttps://www.linkedin.com/company/pulseconnectus/

In this milestone episode of Adventures in Advising, Matt and Ryan welcome Maureen “Mo” Schafer, Assistant Provost for Academic Advising and Director of the Academic Advising Center at the University of Iowa, for a conversation packed with insight, honesty, and a few beautifully relatable metaphors. From her journey as a first-generation student and former campus tour guide to her leadership in a campus-wide advising self-study, Mo reflects on what it really takes to build student-centered systems that work.Along the way, she shares what institutions should know before launching major advising change efforts, why implementation always gets a little messier before it gets better, how leadership shows up at every level, and why the heart of advising still lives in one simple act: sitting down with a student and listening. Thoughtful, practical, and full of wisdom for advisors and administrators alike, this episode is a reminder that meaningful change starts with people. Follow the podcast on your favorite podcast platform!The Instagram, and Facebook handle for the podcast is @AdvisingPodcastAlso, subscribe to our Adventures in Advising YouTube Channel!Connect with Matt and Ryan on LinkedIn.

In February 2025, the U.S. Department of Education issued a “Dear Colleague” letter that signaled aggressive enforcement around race-conscious programs—sparking widespread fear, fast policy changes, and real disruption across higher education. In this episode, we break down what that guidance set in motion, how it impacted student support and campus trust, and what student-centered leadership looks like when institutions are under pressure.We also discuss what happened next: federal judges blocked enforcement of key directives in April 2025, and later developments (including the government dropping its appeal) left the guidance effectively dead—but not before many campuses had already made changes and absorbed damage.

Northern Essex Community College is celebrating its Fifth Annual Giving Day with a 24-hour push to replenish its NECC Fund. It is also getting ready for its Fourth Annual Impact Awards Event.Shana Murrell, the college's director of alumni relations and annual giving recently appeared on WHAV's morning program to explain how the fundraiser works and how donations meet student needs.The blitz, scheduled for today, April 9, aims to unite alumni, staff, students and friends in a common goal of supporting the college and its students, Murrell said. The first Giving Day in 2022 raised $34,000 from just over 200 donors. That was the largest single-day fundraising effort in the college's history. (CUT: murrell-as-they-come.wav) “Essentially, our NECC Fund allows us to have the flexibility to fund different needs for the college. So, we're very excited to have the opportunity to have that fund available so that we can meet the needs of our students as they come,” Murrell said. Among programs the college supports through its NECC Fund is the Internship Stipend Program. Murrell said because so many Northern Essex students work part time while they are also attending classes, it can be difficult to give up a paying job to take an unpaid internship.(CUT: murrell-program-of-study.wav) “An internship stipend helps a student to be able to make up some of that income they may have had to give up while they are participating in a valuable internship that may be related to their major and program of study,” Murrell explained.Contributions to the NECC Giving Day can be made on NECC.edu.Lane A. Glenn, college president, also recently appeared on WHAV's “Win for Breakfast” to talk about another college fundraiser. The college's Fourth Annual Impact Awards is happening Wednesday, May 6.As WHAV reported in February, five awards will be given. The Community Partner Award will go to the Merrimack Valley Transit Authority, while the Outstanding Alumnus Award goes to former state Rep. Michael Costello, a member of the class of 2012; Philanthropy and Volunteerism Award to Richard and Susan Smith Family Foundation and Senior Program Officer Marjorie Ringrose; and Public Service and Advocacy Award to Essex County Sheriff Kevin F. Coppinger. (CUT: glenn-have-seats-available.wav) “You'll be happy to know, or some of the listeners might be happy to know, there's still room for sponsors at the Impact Awards. We have sponsorships available. We have got some seats available,” Glenn said. Impact Awards tickets are $150 each and available at NECC.edu.Support the show

In this episode of Forward Thinking Experts, Sher Downing, PhD sits down with Andrew Lawrence, PhD — Co-Founder and CTO of New Light IO — to explore how AI-driven solutions are transforming K–12 education.Andrew shares how their platform, IntelliTier, simplifies MTSS (Multi-Tiered System of Supports) by unifying behavioral and academic data, improving consistency across schools, and accelerating personalized student support. The conversation dives into how AI can reduce delays in intervention, improve documentation, protect student data through FERPA compliance, and help schools move away from reactive discipline toward proactive, evidence-based strategies.They also discuss fairness in AI, ethical data use, SIS integration, and the long-term vision of leveraging large-scale insights to improve outcomes for students nationwide.If you care about student success, educational equity, and the responsible use of AI in schools, this is a must-listen conversation.Takeaways:AI helps schools identify struggling students sooner — not months later.When academic and behavior data work together, interventions get smarter.Proactive support beats reactive discipline every time.Ethical, FERPA-compliant AI is essential — not optional.The future of student success is tech-enabled but human-led.Andrew says, "My parting advice: focus on solving meaningful problems, listen to the people you serve, and ensure your technology empowers, not intimidates."Learn more about New Light IO and Andrew here:https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-r-lawrence/https://www.linkedin.com/company/neulighthttps://www.facebook.com/people/Neulight/61559694274342/https://www.instagram.com/neulight.iohttps://www.threads.net/@neulight.ioKeywords:#AIinEducation#EdTech#K12Education#StudentSuccess#PersonalizedLearning#MTSS#EducationInnovation#DigitalTransformation#FERPA#SchoolLeadership#FutureOfEducation#DataDrivenEducation

Gifted doesn't mean easy, and it certainly doesn't mean perfect. With gifted educator and 2e advocate Erin Vanek, we dig into what giftedness actually looks like day to day: lightning-fast connections, rich vocabulary, and inventive solutions alongside emotional intensity, executive function gaps, and meltdowns over the smallest snag. We share the language that helps—neurodivergent, twice exceptional, asynchronous development—and the practical moves that turn tension into traction for bright kids who think differently.We talk through why “definitions” of giftedness vary wildly across schools, and how that confusion leaves many families feeling isolated or dismissed. Erin explains how to spot authentic strengths—rapid learning with fewer repetitions, cross-domain links, divergent thinking—and how to honor them without feeding perfectionism. When a child refuses to show work or challenges a one-right-way method, we model how to teach the why, offer real choice, and compare solution paths for efficiency. If big feelings take over, you'll hear a simple re-engagement technique that brings the prefrontal cortex back online so problem-solving can start again.For homeschoolers and parents looking for ways to support their child after school, we map a path that values depth over speed. Instead of racing up grade levels, go lateral: invent operations, flip number orders, and use Bloom's higher levels to analyze and create. Protect reading joy by pairing accessible texts with deep conversations about character, structure, and theme. And leverage games as a secret classroom for cognitive flexibility, planning, patience, and losing well—ending early when needed and debriefing with curiosity. The takeaway is freeing: gifted is not better or worse, just different. When we stop measuring worth by acceleration and start nurturing thinking, resilience, and engagement, our kids learn to thrive on their terms.If this conversation helped, follow and share the show, leave a quick review, and subscribe to our newsletter at TheBrainyMoms.com for more smart, usable tools.ABOUT US:The Brainy Moms is a parenting podcast hosted by cognitive psychologist Dr. Amy Moore and Sandy Zamalis.

Are your Tier 3 supports disconnected from Tier 1 math instruction?You're not alone. Many schools implement math intervention with the best intentions—yet students continue to miss critical Tier 1 instruction, feel left behind, and fail to make meaningful gains.The root issue? Most systems treat Tier 3 like a separate math program instead of a coordinated extension of Tier 1. When intervention is disconnected from core instruction, students don't just struggle—they get further behind.This episode digs into the real reasons why tiered support often fails in math classrooms—and what leaders, coaches, and teachers can do to change that. It's not just about pulling the right small group. It's about building a system where all students get access to high-quality instruction, every day.Listeners Will Learn:Why Tier 3 often functions in isolation—and why that fails studentsWhat makes math intervention effective (and what doesn't)Why a shared vision for math is non-negotiable across all tiersHow to ensure coherence in models, language, and instructionThe importance of building teacher math content knowledge at all levelsWhat math leaders can do to align PLCs, pacing, and professional learningWhy strong MTSS math systems need more than logistics—they need leadershipIf your school or district is struggling to serve students who are far behind in math, this episode is packed with real talk, research-backed recommendations, and hard-won lessons from the field.Not sure what matters most when designing math improvement plans?
