Community Connect 625: Recent Episodes
Flipside
Community Connect 625 is a podcast created for communities who are nurturing the growth of middle school students. Our goal is to create audio content that is relevant and supportive for navigating the journey through the middle school years with pre-teen and teen youth. We hope to strengthen the connection between the school community and home with resources, tips, and ideas that you can use and share with others. Community Connect 625 is produced by Flipside and Saint Paul Public School’s Community Education Department and is funded by the American Rescue Plan.
