K-12 Education
Let’s Talk: School in 2021 & Beyond
Detroit students talk about what’s most important for the future of school.
Lamont Satchel, Jr. (class of 2021 Detroit graduate) moderated a conversation with Mathias Neloms (middle school student) and Mosammad Jahan and Willyne Smith (rising seniors), members of our President’s Youth Council.
They discussed what’s worked and where change is needed, helping school and community leaders reimagine school.
