What if the "end game" of education isn't test scores or standards—but preparing students to thrive in Alabama's future workforce?
Katie and Aubrey dive into that big question with Valerie Curtis, Director of the Jacksonville State Regional Inservice Center. Valerie shares how partnerships with industry, regional STEM ecosystems, and K–12 collaboration are shaping what students need right now to be ready for the jobs of tomorrow.
They discuss:
-
Why durable skills (communication, collaboration, adaptability, time management) matter more than ever
-
How Alabama's industries—from logistics to healthcare to aerospace—are rapidly changing
-
Why kids need real-world exposure starting in elementary school
-
How teachers can model thinking, problem-solving, and communication daily
-
What school leaders can invest in right now to move the needle
-
Why every interaction in a classroom shapes Alabama's future
Packed with inspiration and practical ideas, this episode reframes workforce development as everyone's job—starting in kindergarten.
