Blue Sky Ed
A podcast of interviews with educators--where they've been, what they've learned, and where they think our schools should be going. Each episode, veteran educator Kate Esposito interviews a new guest from the world of education about their story, and shares a little of her own in the process.

Episode 4
In this episode, I sat down with my colleague Joe Hejlek to discuss how he created his role as Director of Wraparound Services at KIPP NJ--and what he does on a day-to-day basis--as well as our similar roots as newbie teachers in New Orleans, the nuances of school funding and income inequality, and why he thinks requiring educators to be extraordinary is a bad idea.
