Guest Bio:
Susanna is the 2021 Arkansas Teacher of the Year. Before becoming the Arkansas Teacher of the Year, Susanna Post taught math and business courses in grades 7 through 12 at Belle Point, the alternative high school in Fort Smith.

This passion led her to create her current platform as teacher of the year, Closing the Empathy Gap. Susanna holds a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics with a minor in Computer Science from the University of Arkansas, a Master of Arts in Teaching from the University of Central Arkansas, and a Master of Education in Rural and Urban School Leadership from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock.
