COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO EDUCATION REFORM

It is time to think and act outside-the-box!  Achieving long-term institutional reform, especially for schools in high poverty neighborhoods, will take a comprehensive approach, where schools, students, parents, and community work together.

  • Improve schools through teacher professionalism
  • Help students along the continuum
  • Engage parents as substantive partners
  • Empower communities to foster high expectations

For more details on this methodical framework, see “Education Reform’s Final Chapter,” published by Republic 3.0 and Medium – The Synapse.
