In this reflective episode, we honor and celebrate Anthony Jackson as our first "original educator" or OE. An "OE" is an educator who has been in the game for more than 30 years and has retired. Anthony, formerly an administrator in the Los Angeles Unified School District, dedicated 40 years and is now newly retired. Hear his incredible journey to responsiveness as he reflects on an amazing career! Soon to be Dr. Jackson humbly describes where it all began at 99th Street Elementary in Watts and how he has bobbed and weaved his way through what we call the matrix, ending his career as a Director of Equitable Services. You will not be disappointed with all that is in between the beginning and the end, not to mention what is coming in his next chapter. Dr. Hollie also reflects on the idea of legacy and longevity, posing the reflective question to us all - what is or will be your legacy? What are you leaving behind?
