In this episode, I speak with Lisa Harpster and Andy Wilson, teachers at State College Area High School in Pennsylvania who run the English language learner program in the school. In addition to discussing the current school situation for their students and what they are thinking about into the next school year, we also discuss the amazing work they are doing right now to support the families of their students. These amazing educators are providing much needed support to families in serious need. They are delivering food and helping them to avoid evictions and pay utilities through financial support. If you are able to help with donations, Lisa's email address is [email protected].
