Matthew R. Kay is a proud product of Philadelphia’s public schools and a founding teacher at Science Leadership Academy.
He believes that any teacher who is willing to put in the hard work of reflection can, through the practice of discrete skills, lead meaningful race conversations. Driven by this conviction, he is passionate about designing professional development that teachers find valuable.
Matthew lives in Philadelphia with his wife, Cait, and his beautiful daughters, Adia Sherrill and Bennu Jane.
