85. Teaching and Community in Rural Georgia with Shannon Borum

STaRLT, pronounced Star Light, is the brain child of Shannon Borum. Born of her frustration as a small town rural language teacher, this group has blossomed into an amazing support group for teachers in Georgia. It's a place to learn, to grow and belong. Join Shannon and host, Michelle Olah, as they discuss the origins, benefits and future of this unique and valuable community of teachers.
