About this episode

The episode discusses building a leadership-learning environment in elementary classrooms with insights from a principal.

If you were asked to close your eyes and describe an elementary classroom, what would you share? Typically, we describe what we can see, however, we know that a leadership environment entails so much more! Join Molly, Dr. Eve, and guest Kate Cisney, principal at Northwest Elementary School in Iowa, as they explore practical ways to build a leadership-learning environment including, and beyond, the classroom walls.
