Bye Bye, Betsy!

This week, Katie and Chelsea have a special send-off for the outgoing Secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos. They cover policy and guidelines in both DeVos's home state of Michigan and on the national stage that have impacted educators over the last four years. Katie learns about pounds per square inch, and Chelsea makes the same mistake twice in a week.
