K-12 Clothing Launches New Podcast for PTAs, PTOs, and School Staff

September 26, 2020

SquadLocker’s strategic partner, K-12 Clothing has launched their own podcast!

The Multipurpose Room, produced by Funnel Media Group, discusses the real-life issues that PTAs, PTOs, and school staff are dealing with today and offers practical tips in these unprecedented times.

Hosts and co-founders of K-12 Clothing, Wesley Jones and Debora Jones saw a lack of resources available to support school groups and created a podcast modeled after the place where these groups have historically met to solve issues – the Multipurpose Room.

Episode 2: I’m Spirit Wear Chair…Help?!

Episode 3: PTA in a Pandemic: Why Bother or Lean In?

Episode 4: A Teacher’s Perspective on the Evolution of the Educational System

COVID-19 has forced us, and given us an opportunity, to rethink how we’ve “always done it.” Special guest Erin Girard, teacher and class quality specialist at Outschool, an online education provider, stops by to talk about the evolution in the educational system, what’s to come, and what it means for teachers and schools.

 

Episode 5: School Pods, Microschools: WTF

Public, private, and charter schools now have hybrid and online options. And the concepts of pods and microschools seem to be all the rage. Tune into episode 5 to learn how to choose the best fit for your student and family.
