Driven Achiever – A Conversation with Dr. Guy Thigpen

In this episode of What Do You Say? With Dr. Eric J., Dr. Becoats kicks off the William Penn School District’s Portrait of a Graduate series with a focus on the first attribute: Driven Achiever.

He’s joined by Dr. Guy Thigpen, a proud Yeadon High School Class of 1981 alumnus and respected expert in urban planning and analytics for the City of Philadelphia. Together, they reflect on how the foundation built in our schools shapes lifelong success, the importance of perseverance, and what it truly means to be driven — both in school and beyond.

Tune in for an inspiring conversation that connects our past, celebrates our present, and looks ahead to how William Penn students are preparing to Focus Forward and Beyond.
