ABOUT THE EPISODE: 

In Season 2, we discussed school choice, however focusing on all things private school from a prospective parents POV. Today, we will continue this conversation, however, from the side of administration within the private school. Given the outcomes of protests, of education & mask mandates during the pandemic, especially in large metropolitan school districts, is private school still worth it?
