What is your biggest challenge in your role?
I would say it would probably be the intentional matchmaking or hiring of educators to our schools. Our education climate right now has been quite a journey, especially ever since the pandemic.
Really getting to understand our schools' needs and, in turn, individual students' needs can be very difficult. We are not always directly at the school, so we can only rely on feedback from educators and schools.
This can be very challenging because we want our students to have a qualified educator every day. I would say that would be the biggest challenge. Then maybe learning all the compliance that has to do with working in schools.
