I brought my recorder to the Bibb County Board of Education’s presentation of Superintendent Dr. Romain Dallemand’s Macon Miracle plan on Friday, February 10th at the Macon Centreplex. The event was part information session, and part celebration of a plan for ambitious and controversial school reform that has yet to pass a Board of Education vote. I captured the events in the auditorium, and was also able to interview a number of people as they left the convocation. Tensions were high — as people have very strong opinions about the strategic plan — but my interview subjects were all gracious, insightful, and open in sharing their opinions with me. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I did putting this podcast together. Running time is 11 minutes and 50 seconds.
