#54 Beyond desks and chairs... operationalizing innovative FF&E upgrades
Description
In Episode 54 of The Charter School Insider Podcast, host Daniel Casselli sits down with Susan Jenkins and Dr. Earl Metzler of Hertz Furniture to discuss how charter schools can go beyond desks and chairs and operationalize truly innovative FF&E (furniture, fixtures, and equipment) upgrades.
They share practical, real-world strategies for reimagining learning spaces—from flexible seating to collaborative layouts—and emphasize that the physical classroom should support how you teach, not just what you teach.
Whether you're working with a new build, a single pilot classroom, or a limited budget, you'll walk away from this episode with actionable insights to align your academic vision with a flexible, future-ready learning environment.
