Secondary literacy isn’t confined to ELA classes—it spans all content areas, requiring a shared understanding and commitment from teachers across disciplines. Matthew Mazzaroppi, Deputy Superintendent at New Visions High School District joins us to discuss the importance of collaboration, expertise, and community engagement in improving learning systems. With a focus on the role of district-level administrators and the need for patience and persistence in implementing change, we dig into the questions we face along the way of transformative change: How do we move the big barriers? Who are we talking about when we say we need to hear from “experts” in our district? How will we know if the work we’re doing is creating the change students need?

Through powerful examples and research-backed insights, this episode empowers educators to move beyond surface-level assumptions and toward a more student-centered approach to teaching and learning.…

Questions come naturally to young children: Why is the sky blue? Where do butterflies go in winter?
