The student becomes the teacher on the latest 'Whole Student' podcast! Tune in for a special episode of The Whole Student. Dunn School Learning Strategies teacher Kimberly Brandon makes a guest appearance to help tell the story of Charli Turner Thorne, Brandon's coach, mentor and surrogate mom. Thorne has the second most wins in the history of Pac-12 women's basketball, and after filming this interview earlier in the season, she just recently announced that she is retiring from coaching. After 25 seasons of exemplifying the care and empathy she learned as a student, Charli leaves a lasting legacy of pupils like Kimberly who carry her Whole Student Educational philosophy forward.
