Dr. M’s Women and Children First Podcast #28 – Joy Warner–An Educated Life - a podcast by Dr. Paul Smolen "Doc Smo"

Joy Warner - An Educated Life

Joy Warner is the founder and director of the Community School of Davidson in Davidson, North Carolina. She is a leader, educator, grower of children and a person with strong compassion. Joy graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill before obtaining a masters in education at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.Her path was a deviation from the traditional model of school leadership leading to a heavy focus on emotional intelligence and growth through the understanding of problems as presented to be solved collectively.

We touch on topics such as:Why such a focus on old mentoring young?
Why is education more than the book work to you?The students really feel the anti-status quo of grades are everything?
Why such a focus on arts?Why such a focus on service work?
Why such a focus on leadership?What is the meaning behind the Standing O that is very unique to CSD ?

I hope that you enjoy my conversation with Joy Warner,Dr. M
