About the Show

Ironically, Lisa never planned to work in education—but thanks to her dad, that’s exactly where she ended up. Now retired, she’s the creator and host of Vice Principal UnOfficed—a comedy podcast that proves truth really is stranger (and definitely funnier) than fiction in K–12 schools.

Vice Principal UnOfficed takes listeners behind the scenes of the real-life chaos inside American public schools, weaving in stories drawn from Lisa’s own life experiences and the unforgettable moments that shaped her unexpected journey into the field of education. Delivered with insight, heart, a sharp dose of sarcasm, and just enough wisdom to sound like professional development (the fun kind), this show is for anyone who’s ever taught, parented, or simply survived middle school.

Bonus: Lisa’s nonagenarian mom (she’s in her 90s) joins as the honorary co-host in every episode —because no good story goes untold without a second opinion, or a quick reprimand.
