11/28/2022 10:22:53 AMEducation has been a way of life for Ayana Lebron and her sister, Khechara Bradford — their parents and grandmother were educators, and the siblings currently work in Houston-area school districts supporting students with disabilities. Next month they’ll take it one step further, crossing the stage together to receive their doctoral degrees in professional leadership from the University of Houston College of Education. They’ve juggled raising children, working and school, all amid COVID-19, Winter Storm Uri and family loss. The journey hasn’t been easy, but they’ll graduate stronger with new tools to help marginalized students succeed.
