Emily Niemi encourages her students at Anoka Middle School for the Arts to get involved in clubs and activities as a way to build skills needed for success in life. Learn how one the clubs she advises helped homeless youth in a big way in this podcast episode. Her awareness and outreach for all students is a pillar of her approach and allows her to make meaningful connections. Her love of literature shines through but the books on her “must read” list may cause a few students to be surprised.
