Laura and Matt GrundlerDr. Mi’Jan Celie Tho-Biaz, Nathan Rødahl, Tim Needles
There are all kinds of perspectives around what educational leadership looks and feels like. It’s not one size fits all, it impacts the mood, atmosphere, and environment of a school so it must be flexible to meet the needs of diverse student populations and families in communities. During the fourth series of Connected Arts Networks (CAN) conversations, we take a deep dive into Teacher Leadership. As a partnership between The National Art Education Association (NAEA), Educational Theater Association, National Association for Music Education, National Dance Education Organization, and NYC Department of Education’s Office of Arts and Special Projects, the goal of this network is to build a sustainable model of professional learning. In this episode, the Creativity Department and Dr. Mi’Jan Celie Tho-Biaz are joined by educators Tim Needles and Nathan Rødahl. Dive into an informative discussion about adapting leadership structures in the classroom and discover strategies used to ensure all students’ needs are met.
