At last week's Grantmakers for Education national conference, ember grantee partner Libertas School of Memphis hosted a fireside chat with former US Secretary of Education Dr. John King. His new book, "Teacher by Teacher," demonstrates how teachers helped him engage in learning and overcome challenges in his youth to become the nation's public school leader.
