Check out a BONUS episode of 8 with 8, where we re-air another great educational podcast: Take the Lead, an Ashland University Professional Learning Podcast. We were delighted to have SST8’s own Pam Kennedy (Regional Early Literacy Specialist or RELS) invited to be on Take the Lead recently. She was so excited to share about the great literacy work going on statewide and in region 8. The Take the Lead podcast is produced by students in the Modern Communications through Media Production career program at Cuyahoga Falls HS, a featured part of the Six District Compact. Be sure subscribe to the Take the Lead podcast on your favorite podcasting platform or listen at

Co-Host: Dr. Dave Silverberg, Northeast Director of Professional Learning Services, Ashland University.
