In this live episode of the STEAM Box vs Podcast, Highlander Charter School Superintendent Simona Simpson-Thomas is joined by student moderators Leanne (12th grade), Ariel (10th grade), and Favor (11th grade). Centered around the visual theme "Who Are We Right Now?" and the core value "Students First, ALWAYS," the panel addresses real questions submitted directly by the student body.
The unfiltered conversation addresses key transitions across the school: the upcoming facility move from Warren back to Providence , the new state cell phone lock box policy, and elevated academic expectations driven by charter renewal pressures. Superintendent Simpson-Thomas speaks openly about expanding faculty diversity through Highlander's Educator Pathway program, strengthening mental health supports through Beyond the Bell and student-led initiatives like Joyful Rebellion, and empowering student voice and advocacy.
