45 years of microschools in Philadelphia: Inside the growing movement of child-centered schooling alternatives buff.ly/3uEsrfo
It was 5 years ago that I visited Philly while writing Unschooled to meet the founders creating self-directed learning programs. Now, it's great to see the amount of growth--and diversification--of innovative ed options! @VELAEdFund My latest @The74: the74million.org/article/45-yea…
Can a network of tiny, teacher-led Montessoris spread like wildflowers? @rickhess99 talks to @kramer_matt of @wildflowerschls. #EWOpinion edweek.org/policy-politic…
@AcademyColossal Standardized tests are at best a loose proxy for the things that we think matter most in education, observes @wildflowerschls @matthewkramer.
Converting innovation into positive impact requires commitment and resources. The national leadership of @StandTogether and the @VELAEdFund is in clear view at this Harvard PEPG Emerging School Models conference.
This was a great session and the conversation was well received as it covered a lot of crucial ground about America's far-reaching, growing microschooling movement. The strength of Wildflower's commitments to the communities you serve resonates clearly.
A growing Montessori network supporting leaders to open community-based schools, @wildflowerschls is a 2023 @YassPrize Quarterfinalist!
What is next in the process? We look forward to coming together on April 19 when the @dcpcsb votes on @wildflowerschls' & @capxlab's applications to open a #charter school. More details will be available at: dcpcsb.org/board-meeting-… #innovate4equity #earnouryes #equity
"How powerful would it be for my daughter to be in a space and educational community amongst parents, community members, and teacher-leaders who build my child's confidence, curiosity, and strong sense of self as a Black girl." #innovate4equity #parentvoice @wildflowerschls
2/2: responsive enough to soothe the wounds of the past and present, and respectful enough to acknowledge the brilliance of teachers and communities to lead and design. It is in this spirit that I express my whole support for @wildflowerschls. —@CarolineIHill #innovate4equity
1/2: "Because we know more now than we did, we can listen to the wisdom of the past & remix it for the present...This means creating the schools for the moment that are small enough to attend to the needs of every child, especially Black and Brown children,..." —@CarolineIHill
Congratulations to the @wildflowerschls & @capxlab teams on reaching such an important milestone at yesterday's @dcpcsb charter application hearing! So grateful to everyone who joined us to show their support for these two excellent school models. 🙏 #innovate4equity
Next in the spotlight is Maia Blankenship! Maia seeks to launch @wildflowerschls - an ecosystem of teacher-led, Montessori micro-schools that are intentionally designed with community and accessible to students of the global majority. #BlackHistoryMonth #innovate4equity
