Jayne Ricciardi AND Steffanie Shoop Shoop on what we can all learn from Biology

Biology — the "study of life" — is complicated, and beautiful, and humungous. Never fear, though: Jayne Ricciardi and Steffanie Shoop, biology teachers at PHS, are here at the lab table with me to peel back its folds and reveal the lessons (and unanswered questions!) within the science that matter to all of us. Oh, and also, they're here to be best friends, and to make me laugh so loudly that I almost fall off of my lab stool.

Reyhan Garcia on art, counseling, and a post-pandemic PHS

Ms. Garcia, a student counselor at PHS, was kind enough to sit down with me and talk about how much our school's student body has changed since the COVID-19 pandemic, and also how much remains the same. Along the way, we discuss the stress surrounding college applications, the beauty of therapeutic poetry sessions, and more.

Inside PHS: What happened to Mr. Chmiel?

Five days ago, Mr. Chmiel was put on paid leave. The Board of Education, citing New Jersey’s Open Public Records Act, have not provided an explanation for his dismissal, but plenty of parents have: we take a look at how the outrage that resulted from the perceived injustice of his situation culminated into an hour-long demonstration on the PHS lawn, and wonder about who's being left out of the conversation. The New Yorker article quoted in the episode is "J. D. Vance, Ron DeSantis, and the G.O.P’s Diverging Paths." Episode corrections: Ms. Birge is the acting co-principal of PHS, not an interim principal. Clarification: although many students and parents have used the word "dismissed" to describe Mr. Chmiel's departure from PHS, he and the administration have clarified that he's on "paid administrative leave."

Brent Ferguson on the intersection of math and religion

Math and religion are often seen as fundamentally different disciplines, but in actuality, a long, rich history of philosophical thought ties them together. Brent Ferguson, a calculus teacher at PHS, breaks those connections down, and explains how his own theological outlook affects the way he thinks about — and teaches — math.
