Ridgemont4sFinest's- The Podcast
Welcome to Ridgemont4sFinest–The Podcast where we stretch out those 3-minute videos from TikTok and continue the unfiltered discussions around public education from the perspective of a veteran teacher. In each episode, I will share my insights and opinions on the issues that matter most to educators - from navigating difficult classroom dynamics to advocating for better funding and policy changes, this podcast will give you an inside look at what it's really like to be a teacher.
But this isn't just a one-sided conversation - I will also be interviewing other teachers, education policy experts, and others to get their perspectives on what's happening in our schools. This podcast is a space for honest conversations and unfiltered opinions about the challenges facing public education today.
If you're a fellow educator who's tired of feeling like no one really understands what you're going through, or if you're just someone who wants to learn more about the state of public education, then this podcast is for you. Join us for thought-provoking discussions and candid insights into the world of teaching.

Let’s Talk About Those TEA Investigation Letters
In this mini episode, I’m breaking down the TEA investigation letters that so many Texas teachers have been receiving lately — the ones claiming you “may have engaged in conduct detrimental to the welfare of children” or “participated in a testing scheme.” I know how terrifying and confusing those words can sound when they show up in your inbox, so I want to help you understand exactly what this letter really means, what it doesn’t mean, and what your rights are.
We’re going to slow things down and talk through what’s actually happening behind the scenes — because most teachers getting these letters haven’t been accused of any wrongdoing. I’ll explain what the different phrases mean, why that “flag” on your certificate was placed and then removed, and what steps you can take to protect yourself moving forward.
