In this episode of Wake Up and Teach, host Nicola Soares, President of Kelly Education, talks with Dr. Catina Lyles, Chief Human Resources Officer at the Special School District of St. Louis County—Missouri’s largest specialized education provider.
They explore how strategic hiring, intentional collaboration, and long-term support for special education professionals can benefit all students in the classroom. Dr. Lyles shares how her district is rethinking the pipeline, recruiting from within, partnering with higher ed, and embracing general ed teachers who want to specialize.
Nicola and Catina also dig into why inclusion works best when general and special ed teams plan together, how AI can save teachers time, and why professional learning must be tailored for real impact. It’s a candid conversation full of insight for school leaders, HR professionals, and anyone committed to building a more inclusive learning environment.
