Biology teacher Aaron Mathieu and host Evelyn Lauer discuss the need to scale back the AP curriculum, including resource-intensive labs, and how Covid makes us consider our core values in education.

In addition to his classroom teaching, Aaron is the advisor for the BioBuilder Club at ABRHS. This fall, Aaron began his 25th year as a high school teacher. He was named the NABT Outstanding Biology Teacher for the state of Massachusetts in 2015. In 2016, he started the Life of the School Podcast where he interviews life science teachers from around the country about their teaching practices and goals.
