Impersonating In-Person: How Back to School Is Different This Year (Afterschool)

Schools and Standardized Testing is our newest series where we will explore the perceptions of education and the impact of standardized testing across Kentucky. Each episode focuses on a different type of school in our state, highlighting voices and experiences from across the Commonwealth. Michelle, Lucinda and Kevin take us on a journey into Kentucky’s rural schools exploring how limited resources, isolated location and community involvement influence educational outcomes.

Note: This episode contains mentions of suicide and mental health issues. KYEdStoryteller Fellow Felicity Therese Krueger explores suicide prevention programs and mental health education in rural Kentucky from the perspective of the students and parents who are most impacted by them.
