Earlier this spring, Superintendent Erin Kane had the honor of being one of 15 superintendents from across the country selected to participate in a Leadership Voices video series. The videos focused on a variety of important topics, such as how schools prepare students to not just survive but thrive in their futures. There are so many opportunities and challenges coming to the K-12 education world from Artificial Intelligence and other technological advances, continuous fiscal hurdles, increasing literacy rates, and more. Superintendent Kane said she truly enjoyed the conversation and the privilege of bragging about DCSD on a national stage.
