Editor's Note
A Practicum on Health Practices
In the interest of expressing gratitude where it’s due, I want to sincerely thank someone who is not on our magazine staff for doing the early planning that led to this month’s issue on public health approaches to benefit public schooling.
The heavy lifting in identifying appropriate topics and potential contributors was handled by Rebecca Shaw as part of a full-semester project tied to her master’s degree in public health at George Washington University. Her practicum required that she produce several deliverables — including a literature review and an editorial plan — that we incorporated into the theme issue now in front of you.
Rebecca previously had spent four years working for AASA on grant-funded initiatives relating to school support for children. She’s now a communications coordinator with the Food Research & Action Center in Washington, D.C.
Our magazine’s partnership with a graduate student was new and worthwhile. I’m sure you’ll find some interesting fare on the health front resulting from her important contribution.
