Elena (Chin) Coppola joined our broadcast to reflect on nearly 24 years as a K–12 counselor. She said that during the Obama administration, staff faced growing expectations to treat students differently based on ethnicity and skin color, while COVID-19’s social-emotional fallout increased her caseload as more students experienced anxiety and depression. After retiring, she became Moms for Liberty’s Queens County chapter chair and gained a broader perspective on the decline of American education.
