Get inspired this month by learning about just a few of the incredible women working at the South Colonie Central School District.

Up first in our mini-podcast series is Joan Arthurton, a special education teacher at South Colonie. Arthurton currently serves as a teacher at the Juvenile Detention Center in Albany where South Colonie Schools has partnered with Berkshire Farm Center to provide the daily educational experience for the youth residing there. Arthurton, along with her colleagues, work with the students to provide stability, support and an educational experience that aligns with a traditional classroom setting. In this episode, Arthurtun shares insight into her work at the JDC, why she loves what she does, how she engages with her students on a daily basis and best practices for younger women on how to make an impact in the communities in which they work.
