Nerding out on Neurodiversity

Ep 31 -- From Pinky Swears to Sagacious Schools, with Dr. Mandi Skerbetz


Listen Later

This episode, we talk with Dr. Mandi Skerbetz, co-founder of The Sage School in Dallas! Mandi intentionally prioritizes neurodiverse students and their experiences, which led to the creation of The Sage School. With over twenty years in the field of special education, Dr. Skerbetz understands the struggles that these students experience. Even better, she understands how to motivate them!

Mandi's hard work and dedication led to the development of The Sage School. When she saw the struggles of the education system, Mandi didn't just complain -- she took meaningful action. We loved being able to hear what her experience was like opening a school, and about her deep passions involved in what she is doing! 🥳🎉

-- Why not start a school? --
