Episode 5: Education

A to Z with Nikki Lee

Welcome to episode 5 of A to Z with Nikki Lee. Today we're talking about my favorite topic: education. Arizona schools are infamously underfunded, and we're currently experiencing a massive teacher crisis. To break it all down we have called in expert Katie Rogerson, the chief operating officer at Tucson Values Teachers.
