Small Town, Big Impact: Building Belonging at Fillmore Central School
Episode seven has just dropped! We hope you are as excited for the latest episode of NYKids Deep Dive, a new podcast series featuring conversations with educators, researchers, and advocates for high-quality educational opportunities from across New York State.
This spring we are rolling out a series of episodes in which the NYKids team converses with principals of positive outlier schools that participated in our latest study! The third of these episodes features a discussion with Fillmore Central School superintendent Michael Dodge and Principal Eric Talbot.
In this episode, NYKids Assistant Director Aaron Leo chats with Superintendent Dodge and Principal Talbot and catches up on the latest news at Fillmore. Some topics we explore are:
- What extracurricular opportunities can build school connectedness in a rural district?
- How can rethinking programming meet the needs of students in Special Education?
- How do schools in a small town effectively engage families and communities in school partnerships?
Tune in to the full episode on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.
