As a collaborative, we approach innovation through an equity lens where we strive for every student and every community to thrive. We ground our work in objective evidence while acknowledging the need to thoughtfully consider and implement promising, pioneering practices.
Our current projects are driven by the themes of rethinking, reimagining, and redesigning public education. These touchstones orient our approach to decision-making and guide our project design. We build networks across our school districts and communities that accelerate and sustain innovation.
In our work, we are helping our member districts respond to the suffering and deepening inequities that the pandemic is unleashing. As we move forward, including into the next year, we also will focus on using our collaborative approach to redesign education to a more equitable and learner-centered system as we move through crisis to transformation.
