FEEDING TAMPA BAY - "Stick A Fork In It" - Mary Brown on The Future of Community Schools

In this episode of FEEDING TAMPA BAY's (FTB) podcast "Stick A Fork In It" we  meet Mary Brown who talks about the Future of Community Schools and this can be a model for the future of successful schooling in our state.. She is the Senior Director of Community Partnerships Schools. We learn what is a "community partnership school." It's a hub for helping EVERYONE from students, to parents, to teachers themselves! The Children's Home Society of Florida and its community partners are focused on expanding school offerings to include things like medical and dental care, mentoring, parenting classes, and even housing resources. They understand how hard it can be for children to get a good education when they're hungry or struggling at home, and how hard it can be for many parents to make ends meet.
STICK A FORK IN IT is the official podcast of FTB, Stick a Fork in It, is meant to inspire action and connection. In every episode, we serve up an educational moment, diving into the stories that shape our communities. Through conversations with diverse guests, we explore the connections that nourish us—because none of us get where we are alone. Who has inspired you? Take a moment to thank them.
