S4 E75- Tyler Bastian and Roots Charter High School

Tyler Bastian is an educator, filmmaker, and founder of Roots Charter High School. Tyler loves to teach and has a passion for discovering and developing potential in everything around him. For four years, Tyler taught Character Education at a local high school and believes positive character is the greatest indicator of success. In 2012, Tyler began to develop the concepts that have become Roots-- Utah's first farm-based charter high school where educators work with students who come from risky environments, helping them find and reach their potential. Spoiler alert, many of the kids that attend Roots Charter High School are neurodivergent. As is Tyler Bastian himself.

This is an inspiring listen. Maybe even inspiring enough for you to open a Charter HS that incorporates many of Roots Charter HS's values.
