"There is no perfect school, there is no perfect school system, there is no perfect teacher or school leader, but it's because we're all human and in our humanity there are imperfections. But I believe in those imperfections that's what makes us great because it requires us to lean and depend on each other."
- Dr. Maisha Rounds
Dr. Maisha Rounds started in South Carolina and is now a turnaround specialist Boston Public Schools at the Michael J. Perkins Elementary School. She's worked with teachers, students, parents, and community partners to employ SEL strategies that have made her students successful and closed opportunity gaps within her school district. She talks to me about the importance of community, how having her own children has given her a more complete picture of the public education system, and the 3 signature practices that her school and the community partners all engage in to help students succeed.
