This episode of The Future of K-12 Education features a conversation with Anita Huggins, superintendent of Charleston County School District, to discuss her vision for one of South Carolina’s largest school systems and the strategies CCSD (https://www.ccsdschools.com/) is using to drive student success. Drawing on more than 25 years of experience as a teacher, principal, and district leader, Huggins shares the three priorities guiding her work: improving student outcomes and closing achievement gaps, strengthening support for teachers and classrooms, and streamlining services for schools. She also explains how staying connected to students, educators, families, and community stakeholders shapes her leadership approach and informs district decision-making, including the challenges presented by artificial intelligence in education. School leaders, educators, and education partners shouldn’t miss this honest and insightful conversation.
