Join Kosta and his guest: Cindy Putman. Nationally recognized educator, advocate and consultant, Cindy works as the Ready To Learn Project Manager at WCTE and is the Academic Social Interventionist for the Putnam County School System.
In this episode: You facilitated the first partnership between a public school system and a PBS station. You understand the importance of public works and the importance of giving more to those with less. What’s your message to those who question the effectiveness of public education and resources in this critical time? In 2021 you received the Champion for Children Award from Sesame Street Workshop and PBS for your work with underserved children in vulnerable communities. PBS, WCTE, and members like you give our children in the Upper Cumberland opportunities and information they wouldn’t have otherwise. Will you tell us how you’ve developed the Ready to Learn Program and how it’s changed our community?
