Lead. Learn. Change.

Host On Mic Episode - Teachers Matter!

Episode Summary

Lead. Learn. Change. podcast host David Reynolds reflects on the stories and lessons lifted from the first six episodes, sharing a couple of his own stories as well. David draws on his experiences as a classroom teacher, school administrator, grant writer and his work in professional development to encourage educators to recognize the value of their work and the potential they have to improve the lives of others. For any listener who is not an educator, please consider saying “thank you” to a teacher, coach, or mentor who made a difference in your life. David serves as the point person for the Impact Project at the Professional Association of Georgia Educators (PAGE), one of the largest independent educator organizations in the United States. David has been happily married to his college sweetheart since 1981, and their only child is well on his way to becoming a physician. David and Debbie also have a wonderful daughter-in-law who is an amazing cook. David has bungee jumped, is a professionally amateur photographer, worked at KFC for one day, and occasionally threatens to write all of his business emails in haiku. Other amazing facts will be divulged over time.
