Nanette Yurecko's Journey To Responsiveness, The Original Educata' Series, Part 2 of 3

Back to Minneapolis-St. Paul we go. This time to hear the journey of "original educator" Nanette Yurecko, affectionately known as Nan. What started off as an observation in her high school while serving as a teacher's assistant in a special education classroom blossomed into a vabbulous mission and service in education spanning 30 years. In other words, Nanette has been a warrior in equity/cultural responsiveness since day one. Known best for her time as an assistant superintendent of curriculum and instruction in the Brooklyn Center Schools, Yurecko has always been a strong and loud advocate for the underserved. In-depth would be one word to describe her journey as she reflects on the decades of service she has given to countless students and educators. And her work continues today as she mentors future educators going into senior leadership. Also in this episode, Dr. Hollie laments the Buffalo and Uvalde tragedies and how they should remind us of the importance of showing outrageous love to our students, friends, and family every single day.Learn more about CLR and Dr. Hollie at www.culturallyresponsive.org and Twitter @validateaffirm
