Скачать или смотреть From Red Tape to Real Outcomes with The Hunt Institute

As the role of the U.S. Department of Education shifts, states and districts face both uncertainty and opportunity. Host Vinay Ganti sits down with Terri Conrad, Ed.D. and Dr. Jaalil Hart of the Hunt Institute to explore how leaders can “act as if” by building capacity, strengthening data systems, and planning for impact over personalities. They discuss bright spots like Virginia’s English Learner Network, lessons from ESSER funding, and why science‑of‑reading implementation must be sequenced thoughtfully alongside math. The conversation tackles teacher recruitment and retention, innovative staffing models, and the power of mayoral partnerships to address affordability and workforce pathways. Finally, the guests preview the Hunt Institute’s Across the Aisle survey—rolling out in January—which surfaces what voters, parents, and educators actually agree on, beyond the “red‑meat” noise. If you care about moving from compliance to outcomes—and doing it sustainably—this episode is a practical roadmap for state and local leaders.
