Anniston Academy with Dr. Kathryn DuBray and Dr. Erin Crouch Mekkaoui

Join Kosta and his guests: Dr. Kathryn DuBray and Dr. Erin Crouch Mekkaoui, Co-Founders of Anniston Academy, Cookeville’s first therapeutic microschool built for neurodivergent learners. In this episode: Most schools ask kids to fit the system. You built a system to fit the kids. What happens when a child actually feels seen in a classroom?
