Today on Smile Politely Radio, we will be speaking with Champaign Unit 4 Schools Superintendent Dr. Judy Wiegand. Dr. Wiegand has now been superintendent just over a year, so it seems like a good time to chat. We will discuss the disctrict’s plans for new facilities, the infamous kindgergarten lotteries, lasting impact of the federal consent decree, the district’s efforts to minimize social inequities, and whatever else we can squeeze into 25 minutes.
Smile Politely Radio airs each Friday evening at 5:30 on WEFT 90.1 FM in Champaign, and is available as a podcast the following week.
