In this pilot episode of Tribe Talk, we sit down with Superintendent Sandy Reid for a conversation about her journey, her leadership, and what drives her passion for Vidalia City Schools. It’s a chance to get to know the person behind the title. It’s a relaxed conversation to kick things off and a look ahead at the next episode, where we explore the new WozEd STEM program coming to the district.

From robotics and coding to hands-on engineering and design, WozEd is reshaping how students learn and think about the future. Dr. Reid shares how the program will roll out across the district, what teachers can expect from upcoming training, and why this is such a pivotal step for Vidalia students.

Lesa Brown joins Superintendent Sandy Reid to talk about Career, Technical, and Agricultural Education in Vidalia City Schools. They discuss what CTAE really means for students today, how it connects classroom learning to real-world careers, and the ways it’s preparing Vidalia students for life after graduation.
