Welcome to Beyond Academics: Connecting Classroom & Community, the podcast where we dive deep into the world of community schools and explore how they're transforming education for students, families and communities. My name is Joanna Marrufo, your host for Beyond the Blackboard. I'm the Integrated Supports Outreach Specialist for the Innovation and Engagement Branch at San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools. We are hearing from educators, community members who are at the forefront of creating change and meeting the needs of the community, be it basic needs, healthcare, social services or social emotional learning.
