Show Notes
Welcome to the Spud Spotlight Podcast Series — where we shine a light on the heart of our community!
Each episode, we celebrate the stories, journeys, and voices of Spuds from the past, present, and future. From alumni making waves in the world, to students building their path, to the people shaping what’s next — this is where we honor what it means to be part of Spud Nation.
In this episode, we’re joined by two pillars of our student support team — Peter Ferguson and Rachel Lerum.
Peter and Rachel open up about their purpose, their paths into student support, and the deep impact of relationships on student success. Together, they explore what it means to truly “find your person” at school, why that connection matters, and how we can create a culture where every student feels known, valued, and supported.
From personal stories to practical advice for students, families, and staff, this conversation is a powerful reminder that no one does school — or life — alone.
