SCHOOL GROWTH SHORT COURSE

WHY ARE SCHOOLS SO COMPLICATED?!?

That question has been asked by anyone who has experience with K-12 schools. Though billions of dollars have been invested in school transformation over the last two decades, more frustration has been achieved than progress.

Why? What is it about schools that so often leads to tension and conflict?

Board members, policy makers, parents, etc., have all experienced the challenges of understanding how schools work and why they are so complex. This School Growth Short Course hosted by Scott Barron provides insight to spark important conversations that we hope will lead to greater understanding and collaboration among the stakeholders of education.
