Kate Snyder | Portland Education Foundation
Kate Merchant Snyder is the executive director of the Portland Education Foundation. In her Maine Live talk Kate discusses her decision of whether to send her twin daughters to private or public school, the negative perceptions she’s encountered of Portland’s public schools, and how her own lens widened when she became more involved with Portland’s public school system. “Someday someone will be up here on stage talking to you about student assessment data, and they wont be making a distinction about kids’ outcomes because of their homes’ socioeconomic status.”
