In this not-to-be missed episode, Gabbie Stroud talks about the purpose behind her new book, how she views schools through a different lens now, and discusses her newfound hope that education is once again on the right track. In December 2018, author Gabbie Stroud appeared as For the Love of Teaching's first ever guest. Earlier that year Gabbie had released her memoir "Teacher", lifting the lid on the teaching profession and the state of education. A lot's changed since I last spoke with Gabbie. She's written another book, entitled Dear Parents, which is an open letter to the families of our students. Dear Parents is due for release in 2020.
