Teaching Learning Leading K-12

Suzy Pepper Rollins - Boys in the Back: The Downward Spiral of Boys in School. This is episode 728 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast. Suzy Pepper Rollins is the author of 3 Books: Learning in the Fast Lane, Teaching in the Fast Lane & Teaching Vulnerable Learners. She has produced her first short documentary entitled "Boys in the Back" in which 4 educators provide insights on the downward spiral of boys in school. Suzy notes - We are in the midst of an urgent national boy crisis.  Failing grades, low college admissions, high percent of office referrals. 2/3 of IEP’s are boys, 70% of D’s & F grades are boys…there are no silver linings in the research.  More than ever, boys dislike school and see it as a waste of time.   Our focus is Suzy’s film - Boys in the Back. Great conversation! So much to think about. Before you go... You could help support this podcast by Buying Me A Coffee.
