Welcome to the Future of Education: Charlottesville, a show where we consider what our education system should look like in 20 years.   I’m your host Lee Elberson and I ask you to join me on a journey to the future as experts from the Charlottesville Community explore our education system through a variety of different lenses.  These topics are specific to Charlottesville but likely have wide-reaching implications.
