Mark Calhoun, Director of MTSS for Aurora Public Schools, discusses issues of equity, the accountability era, and the ways in which we can break down silos across schools and in central office. He also dives into the pressure of modern public education and the way in which we take things “off the plate” of teachers.
He is married to his favorite person, and loves his three children quite a little bit (aged 8, 13 and 15). He is passionate about authentic learning, technology with purpose, and creating at least one new thing every day. In short, he teaches, and learns. A lot.
Also, he co-founded WouldYouLikeABanana.com with his wife, Kara.
