We would love to hear from you! Send us a message (if you'd like a reply, email us at literacypodcast@greatminds.org)
Kymyona Burk is the Policy Director for Early Education at ExcelinEd, where she supports states pursuing a comprehensive approach to K-3 reading policy through successful policy implementation. She gives context as to what led her to this position - her previous experiences as State Literacy Director for Mississippi and the Executive Director of Teaching & Learning with Jackson Public Schools - and how these roles and her teaching experiences influenced her current policy work (read about her strategy work in Mississippi for improving reading achievement here).
Listen in as she shares what she learned along the way, her method for scaling strategy, and how policy can influence student success.
