from Development Desk · host Ana
In this episode, we sit down with Thomas Jonathan Maese—an MTSS/504 Coordinator, teacher mentor, and community-rooted educator who brings a unique lens to inclusive education. From early childhood to secondary classrooms, Thomas has worked across age groups and systems, always centering students who are neurodiverse or behaviorally complex. We explore how schools can better support diverse learners, what makes a 504 plan meaningful, and why teacher recognition matters more than we think. Plus, Thomas shares insights from his work with Head Start and the teacher-owned coffee business he co-runs.Every child deserves a system that sees their potential—and every great teacher deserves to be seen, too.https://www.youtube.com/@DevelopmentDesk
