Interview with David Stewart - Superintendent of Hilliard City Schools
From https://www.hilliardschools.org/departments/superintendent/#
In this episode, we sit down with David Stewart to discuss the ongoing challenges facing public education today. We begin with a somber reflection on the latest mass shooting in Georgia, using it as a starting point to explore how Hilliard City Schools respond to and support students in distress both before and after such dangerous situations arise.
The conversation then shifts to funding challenges unique to Ohio, highlighting the local levy issue on the ballot this November. Kevin dives into specifics about the district's building construction schedule, the eight-year gap since the last levy request, and how these factors align with the Master Facilities Plan.
In the second half, Jordan asks some questions regarding the pace of change in education, addressing how the district manages successes and failures of large initiatives and what top priorities Mr. Stewart foresees for the next five years. We also touch on school choice, budget concerns, and the constitutional implications surrounding EdChoice vouchers.
Tune in for an insightful discussion on the complexities of leading a school district in today's evolving educational landscape.
