ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What do you do when the school system isn’t built to serve the kids you care about most? For some educators, the answer is: build something better.
In this episode of Choice Words, Jay Artis Wright sits down with educator and leader Dominique Lee to explore what it really takes to support students, especially in communities too often underserved and overlooked. They talk honestly about broken systems, the weight teachers carry, and the difference between showing up in a classroom and showing up for a whole child and family.
This isn’t just a conversation about teaching, it’s a conversation about transformation.
