First hour: How rapid tests might impact small businesses in Monroe County
Second hour: How administrative turnover impacts school districts
Rapid tests will soon be coming to Monroe County in higher numbers. Health Commissioner Dr. Michael Mendoza says the county is hoping a large shipment will arrive before the holidays. For small businesses, this could be a way to make sure that no one is serving customers when the staff has COVID. We discuss how it might work. Our guests:
- Kristen Flores-Fratto, owner and president of the Gate House Cafe
- Danielle Raymo, owner of Rochester Brainery
Then in our second hour, new research shows that lower-performing schools suffer the most when there are high turnover rates of school leaders. Specifically, the turnover reduces districts' capacities to share research-based ideas to improve schools. Professor Kara Finnigan at the University of Rochester is a leader in that research. She joins us to discuss the issues with fellow guests:
- Kara Finnigan, professor of educational leadership, and director of the education policy program in the Department of Educational Leadership at the Warner School at the University of Rochester
- Josh Starr, CEO of PDK International
- Amy Maloy, Rochester City School Board Commissioner
