Leadership Breakfast: Dr. Lisa Herring
On Tuesday, we hosted a virtual leadership breakfast with incoming Atlanta Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Lisa Herring. A Spelman College graduate, Herring expressed excitement to be back in Atlanta in her new role starting July 1. Herring previously served as superintendent of Birmingham City Schools, where she oversaw significant improvements in student achievement.
In conversation with our Executive Director Rohit Molhotra, Herring touched on the importance of education to her family, her love for Atlanta, and how we can renew faith in the school system. Check out some of our favorite moments or watch the entire conversation below.
