How different would school feel if every student was truly seen?

In this episode of The Rachael Maves Podcast, Rachael sits down with Dr. Ivan Duran, Superintendent of Highline Public Schools, to unpack how his own near-dropout experience and his parents’ struggles in the education system shaped his unwavering belief in equity, literacy, and the power of truly knowing every student.

From launching medical pathways in high schools to turning every teacher into a literacy teacher, he reveals how leaders can design systems that meet students where they are and prepare them for the future they deserve. Episode Notes
