LISTEN: Student Organizers Talk about Teacher Quality with Heidi Ramirez

Along with other members of the Philadelphia Student Union, I recently interviewed Heidi Ramirez, a member of the School Reform Commission (SRC) who  announced her resignation last month. We asked her about subjects such as teacher quality and the school district's strategic plan.

This is a short version that includes only some of the interview. The full interview, including questions about her experiences as a SRC member and her opinions about the role of the Commission, will be available in the next week at our podcast www.onblast.podomatic.com.
