Whats Best For Kids

“The student voice is incredibly important to me and incredibly important to our school… it gets a little tricky because there are rights issues there,” Coppo said. “I want to be better at the podcast before I bring in kids.”

That said, Coppo’s aspirations are infectious. In what has been a “soul-satisfying” experience for him, Coppo hopes he can continue having conversations about education, but also about his other passions.

“In a perfect world, I’d have three podcasts, one on education, one on music and one on movies,” Coppo said. “It’d be awesome to travel around and talk to other schools, districts and educators all over the country and world.”

But no matter where his podcasting passions lead him, Coppo will always be open to having discussions, whether in his office overlooking the TPHS quad or on the air.
