EdLeader Epsiode 17 - Obstacle Meet Innovation: A School District's Innovative Approach to Providing Next-Level Exterior Wi-fi

Show Notes

In this episode of EdLeader, Dr. Jackson sits down with Dr. Lory Morrow, to discuss overcoming an obstacle that is faced by school districts across the country and around the world: lack of access to high-quality internet. This lack of access impacts students, families, and community members. Dr. Morrow and her team have met that challenge with collaboration, seeking out and using good data, and employing innovative solutions. They have created a “Next-Level” system of exterior wi-fi.

Dr. Lory Morrow serves as the Superintendent of the Lincoln County Schools in Lincolnton, North Carolina. She has been a public school educator for 29 years. She is the current President-Elect for the North Carolina Association of School Administrators (NCASA) and Past President of the North Carolina Association of Supervision and Curriculum Development (NCASCD).
