Town Hall: The Future of Public Education w/SFUSD Superintendent Matt Wayne

KALW conducted a live, in-person conversation at its 220 Montgomery Street community events space with San Francisco Unified School District Superintendent Matt Wayne, educators, students, and parents. The conversation with people inside our schools consisted of what’s working and what’s not, as well as talk about how to ensure a healthy public education system into the future.

Panelists:

Dr Matt Wayne: SFUSD Superintendent

Heidi Seretan: Special ed teacher/department head and SFUSD parent

Meagan To: Student delegate to the SFUSD school board

Yvette Byes Edwards: SF Parent Coalition and PTA member

I joined KALW in 2003. As Executive News Editor and then News Director, I helped our news department win numerous regional and national awards for long- and short-form journalism. I've also helped create numerous training programs — for teenagers, incarcerated people, and early-career journalists — and have taught hundreds of audio producers. I served as interim Executive Director for nearly two years. My work is currently focused on creating original live events, programming, and building partnerships with like-minded organizations.
