#009 – In this episode of Z-Rated Success, Nick sits down with the director of Equity and Diversity Broward County Public Schools, David Watkins.
In this episode, you will learn:
● How the achievement of a child directly impacts their future
● The #1 factor that determines a child’s success
● Effective ways to foster discipline in school
● Critical solutions to eliminating the school to prison pipeline
David enjoys serving students throughout the school system. But he is particularly passionate about helping students who are most at risk of dropping out of high school and falling victim to criminal activity. He shares the importance of humanizing our students. To let them know that we appreciate them. We love them and want them to succeed, instead of seeing them as criminals because perhaps of the way they’re dressed or maybe where they’re from or perhaps of past behavioral issues. Students will run through walls for you; they will work hard to help achieve what you are asking.
