The Commonwealth Beat with Laura LeBeau - Episode 82 - 06/15/25

What kind of impact does a teacher have on their students?  A good person to ask may be the 2025 National Teacher of the Year, Ashlie Crosson of Mifflin County High School   That's because the impact a few high school teachers had on her is the reason she's a teacher, today!  In particular, her journalism teacher's impact is the reason she decided to forego a journalism career and turn towards teaching.  Now, for the next year, she'll travel the nation and speak at over 150 function, advocating for teachers, sharing her passion for the profession, and hopefully, encouraging others to think of a career in teaching.  An in-depth conversation with the 2025 Teacher of the Year, Ashlie Crosson of Mifflin County, PA.
