A snag on a sweater can be annoying, but a loose thread in our education system? That’s a crisis. Shout-out to TEDxGCU for giving our CEO Michael Vilardo, a platform to voice the urgent need to digitize how we learn.
From TikTok to Netflix, his talk explored the gap between how the new generation consumes information and how we learn, and what it’ll take to bridge that digital divide.
We’re proud to be leading that change!

While we're all learning stuff, here are some things we're not allowed to touch behind the scenes. 🤔
They say great leaders start young.
Our latest guest on On the Subject with Michael Vilardo started her teaching journey in a bedroom closet—literally—teaching her sisters the ABCs.
Crystal Castaneda, now Superintendent of Byron Union School District—one of the Bay Area’s most forward-thinking K–8 districts—has walked the entire path of education. And through it all, her mission has stayed the same: uplift every student, no matter their story.
In this episode, Crystal shares how she’s tackling the big questions in modern education.
Crystal dives into:
🎯 MTSS done right – Moving beyond buzzwords to real impact for all learners.
🎯 Understanding Gen Alpha – How today’s youngest students differ drastically from Millennials.
🎯 Equity at the core – Making sure every student—like an Indonesian English learner who changed her life—feels seen and supported.
🎧 Tune in for a powerful conversation about leadership, inclusion, and why your fourth-grade teacher might still be your biggest influence. Link in comments 👇

Self-reflection is the key to great learning, so of course we're putting our team on the spot again—here's what our team learned this week! 🤔
Stop scrolling to check out what's going on behind the scenes—Subject is working hard to bring you our new MS Environmental Science and HS Earth & Space courses! More exciting updates coming soon!
Our latest guest on On The Subject with our CEO Michael Vilardo is a leader reshaping education in the Southwest…
…and his journey into the field started with a little convincing from his wife 💡
Before Jaime De La Torre became Director of Las Cruces Public Schools—New Mexico’s second-largest district—he never imagined a career in education. In fact, his own school experience left him disillusioned. But when his wife, a teacher, encouraged him to give it a try, he discovered a passion for transforming the system he once doubted.
Now, leading a district of over 23,000 students, Jaime is committed to bridging gaps and innovating for the future. His key focus areas:
🎯 Educational technology & AI – Leveraging tools to enhance learning, not replace human connection.
🎯 Balancing innovation & tradition – Tech should support, not overshadow, foundational teaching.
🎯 Empowering underserved communities – Ensuring students in New Mexico have access to cutting-edge opportunities.
🎯 Leadership with heart – Drawing from his own struggles to create a better experience for today’s students.
From reluctant skeptic to visionary leader, Jaime’s story is proof that the right inspiration can change lives—and entire districts.
Tune in to this powerful conversation about resilience, innovation, and the future of education! Listen now at the link in the comments 👇
