243 - Young Adults are ready much earlier than we think!

If we connect kids with their community while they are in school to help solve problems and learn ... well ... would that work?  We think so, and that is a part of the mazing work Joel Vargas and JFF.org are doing. Joel Vargas is a vice president of programs at JFF. He oversees programs focused on improving learning systems and outcomes, advancing the application of research and analytics, and inclusive regional economic development. Head to JFF.org to learn more! Alli Privitt and Peter Hostrawser dive into missed opportunities in education to really understand where our students strengths lie.  Alli and Peter set up the conversation around going beyond the score in education and what opportunities are missed. We will be chatting with experts along the line and seeing how people are doing education "beyond the score." Connect with our co-hosts!
