Chasing Bailey

The new school year is underway, and we are getting ready for the second season of Chasing Bailey.   

The first episode of the new season will drop October 1st.   Plan to join us as we take a look at what schools can and should be doing post-pandemic.  Later episodes will look at principal’s autonomy, teacher shortages, professional development, and what parents really want from schools.   We’ll hear from familiar Bailey characters and then bring other educators into the conversation.    
 
If you want to be part of our conversations, if your school is doing something we need to know about, if you have questions that you want us to take up, drop us a line at chasingbaileypod@gmail.com.   And as always, like us on Facebook, and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts!! 

What is Chasing Bailey?

Chasing Bailey is a podcast about a group of teachers, leaders, and others who dedicated themselves to changing the fortunes of a failing middle school in Nashville TN from 2012 to 2016.
They succeeded, but their achievement was bittersweet.
In 2016, the district closed that school.
Still, those who were there knew they had stumbled onto something special, some important educational truths that might help all of us find our way out of the morass that COVID 19 has left us in.
