Annie Kessler is a dedicated leader committed to advancing educational equity. She started her career in education as a City Year New York AmeriCorps Member, serving in a 5th grade classroom at PS48X in the South Bronx after receiving a Bachelor of Arts in English at Loyola College in Baltimore, Maryland. Annie’s experiences as an AmeriCorps Member were transformative in her career journey and led her to become a Program Manager and then Director at City Year New York.
A little about … City Year New York:
City Year New York AmeriCorps members a.k.a Student Success Coaches (SSCs) serve full-time in 17 New York City public schools, reaching more than 7,000 students each day. (They are basically an army of 20-somethings who come into community schools and serve as teacher helpers/caring adults.)
Our focus today is …. New York City will need to hire almost 4,000 more educators to meet new classroom size requirements. Where will new teachers come from?
Awesome conversation!
Great focus!

Joshua Ray - Finding Your Balance: Personal and Professional Wellness Strategies for Effective Educational Leadership. This is episode 770 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast.
Joshua Ray, EdD, is an educational speaker and author who has led the Professional Learning Communities (PLC) at Work® process at the elementary, secondary, and district level. He is passionate about building healthy school cultures, the work of collaborative teams, systems of support, and educator well-being.
As assistant superintendent, Dr. Ray helped schools collaboratively build district common assessments, unite around common expectations, and improve teaching and learning. He worked alongside principals and instructional coaches to make the PLC at Work process practical and meaningful.
Previously, Dr. Ray was principal at Greenwood High School and East Pointe Elementary School. Under his leadership, both campuses were selected by the Arkansas Department of Education to participate in the Arkansas PLC at Work project. Greenwood High School became a destination for schools and educators across the state looking to learn how to implement PLC work on a secondary campus. Similarly, East Pointe Elementary went from a “B” school to a distinguished Arkansas campus in the top 5% of performance and growth, resulting in nearly $150,000 of reward funding from the state of Arkansas and East Pointe being recognized as a “Leader in Me Lighthouse School.” Dr. Ray also serves as a member of Arkansas’s state guiding coalition focused on developing PLCs and serves as an adjunct professor at the University of Arkansas.
Dr. Ray was chosen to represent the University of Arkansas at the American Educational Research Association Conference as a David L. Clark scholar for his work on the wellness practices of educational leaders. He has published research on PLCs and educator well-being in Principal Magazine, The Standard, AllThingsPLC Magazine, and the Journal of Educational Administration.
Joshua holds a doctorate in educational leadership from the University of Arkansas. He is a National Board-Certified Teacher and an Arkansas Master Principal graduate.
Our focus today is Josh’s latest book - Finding Your Balance: Personal and Professional Wellness Strategies for Effective Educational Leadership.
