Teaching With Mi

This week's episode is special because I got to interview two of my KIPP alum friends; Dyamond Thompson. class of 2007 and Don. Chatman, class of 2009. We had a blast reuniting to talk about our time as KIPP students: our favorite year, teachers, field trips, other favorite memories, and what our relationships are like with KIPP to this day. We also even talked about how we feel about how KIPP has evolved since we were students and post-pandemic.
