Associate Professor of Education Melissa Wells
Professor of Education Melissa Wells spoke to With Good Reason radio for a recent episode titled “Baby Babble – Bring Your Family to School.” Too often when it comes to helping minority kids succeed in school, families are seen as part of the problem to solve. Instead, Wells recognizes the strengths that families bring. She shares her favorite kids’ books that help invite families into schools and celebrate their cultural strengths. Melissa was named an Outstanding Faculty member by The State Council of Higher Education for Virginia. Listen to the episode.
