Climbing the Charts sat down with Fran Bush, a former Metro Nashville School Board Member and owner and director of Model Kids Learning Academy which, provides childcare services to some of Nashville’s neediest families in growing communities.
While some might say that running for Mayor is Fran’s biggest challenge yet, it’s hard to agree with that after she shares her life story, which is both fascinating and genuinely inspiring. While Fran shares her vision for Nashville and previews what a Mayor Bush administration might look like, including her top priorities as mayor, she also tells us about her youth growing up in North Nashville, what it was like entering the foster care system at age 12, and also what it was like to attend Metro Public Schools – and McGavock High School, in particular – during desegregation and the inception of “busing.” For anyone interested in education, foster parenting, foster care, or the outsized influence that teachers can and do have in the lives of their students, this is a must listen.
