In this inspiring episode of The Silk Stocking Sisters Podcast, we explore the transformative effect and lasting impact that teachers can have on their students lives. We're honored to be joined by Alethia West, a dedicated educator and former administrator for the NYC Board of Education. Ms. West shares her journey, from her early days teaching in the Bronx to her leadership role in one of the largest school systems in the country.
Ms. West opens up about what it meant to be one of the few teachers of color in a predominantly Black and Hispanic school. Her authenticity, honesty, and deep care for her students allowed her to build powerful, genuine relationships with her students. She emphasizes how a teachers presence and how they "show up" can shape how students engage with their education and, ultimately, with their future.
Join us for a conversation that dives into the importance of representation, the need for students to feel seen, heard, and valued, and the enduring influence of educators who lead with empathy.
