An Educational Journey, with Rena Clark

In this episode, we talk with Unpacking Education cohost Rena Clark about her teaching career. From her personal experience as a struggling reader, who did not want to be a teacher, to a successful career as an elementary teacher, district learning coach, and educational leader, Rena shares what she’s learned along the way.

Overall, Rena says, “I have lots of hopes and things for the future. I think it’s looking good. We’re heading in the right direction, just not as fast as I would like.” She believes that schools are striving to provide students with more choice, leverage family and community assets, understand each other better, and offer creative options to students, and teachers are increasing their use of Universal Design for Learning strategies when planning lessons.
