In this week’s edition of Facing South Florida:
CBS News Miami’s Jim DeFede talks to Broward County’s new school superintendent Howard Hepburn. Dr. Hepburn shares his vision for the district. The two also discuss what we might expect under his leadership regarding the controversial plan for school closings and repurposing due to declining school enrollment. Another of the topics discussed is why Broward has not been an A-rated school district for more than a decade, and what might be in the works to change that.
Plus, DeFede tackles a variety of topics with Democratic Congressman Jared Moskowitz, including the aftermath of the Trump guilty verdicts. They also discuss Pres. Joe Biden’s just announced new policy on the border, as well as the growing pressure on Israel to accept a U.S.-backed plan to call for a ceasefire in Gaza. The conversation also includes next week’s planned demolition of the 1200 building on the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School campus, the site of the 2018 massacre. Congressman Moskowitz is a MSD graduate.
