Ep. 36: "Saving Our Children and Their Education During A Pandemic" (with Dr. Nadia Lopez)
Many parents are having a difficult time home-schooling their children. However, remote learning can be just as, if not more, frustrating for the child. In Ep 36: “Saving Our Children And Their Education During A Pandemic,” Dr. Nadia Lopez walks us through the challenges affecting most New York City public schools, especially those in impoverished neighborhoods, like Brownsville. Dr. Lopez highlights the hardships of homeschooling, discusses IEP / SETSS students, identifies the weaknesses and inequities in our educational system, challenges the public to be more active in elections, and offers sound advice to discouraged parents. Dr. Lopez even leaves Jay speechless in this powerful episode.
Ep. 36: "Saving Our Children and Their Education During A Pandemic" with Dr. Nadia Lopez
Dr. Nadia Lopez of Mott Hall Bridges Academy gives us inside access to the challenges our children, educators, and schools are facing during and after this pandemic. As a fellow parent of Latinx and Caribbean descent, this NYC school leader is overcoming her own personal mental health experience and is still championing for her scholars to maintain access to their education. As COVID19 continues to wreak havoc on the weaknesses in our community, students in poor areas could fall prey to generational issues if we do not provide educational resources and emotional support. Dr. Lopez shines a bright light on how we can prioritize our children’s education and strategize our collective voices to make valuable changes in the educational system, that disproportionately affect black and brown children.
