For my first episode I interviewed Dr. Monifa B. McKnight, interim superintendent of schools for Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS), Maryland. We discussed how the pandemic affected students socially and emotionally. We talked about how school counselors, admin, and teachers can be more aware of a student's mental and emotional health as well as their grades and report cards. Dr. McKnight also mentioned resources that young adults can use to help through anxiety, depression, and stress.
