March was Women's History Month, and we thought it was a great opportunity to create an episode centered on 'Women in Leadership.' To help us with this conversation, we enlisted Madeleine Heide, Superintendent at Asociacion Escuelas Lincoln, and Sara Walsh, Head of Early Childhood and Lower School here at LFCDS.

Many of our listeners may remember that our first season of the LFCDS Community Podcast was produced in conjunction with Pete Moore, former head of Lower School, back in 2019.

Of course, a once in a lifetime pandemic forced us to focus our efforts on the changes it ushered in.

But now, we're happy to return to this format to share the amazing stories around us with all of you. Recorded just before Thanksgiving break, this episode includes a conversation with Grade 2 student and poetry competition winner Madeline H., LFCDS faculty member Lukas Christianson, and our Head of School Elect, John Melton.
