Welcome to episode 90 of the Extra Credit podcast.

This week, we’re focusing on a new state policy that calls for students to start grading their teachers and schools. We explain how the student engagement surveys work, and how student voices fit in with Idaho’s new accountability plan.

Plus, the State Board of Education supports a new plan to give schools flexibility to bring professionals into the classroom through nontraditional teaching routes. We take a first look at how the new concept might play out.

Be sure to check back next week for another new episode of Extra Credit.
