Imagine classrooms that are filled with students who:

• Choose to be in that classroom for a specific purpose.
• Laugh and cry as their creations inspire, compel, and challenge each other to do more – to do better.
• Work alone on their own pathways at their own pace.
• Work together creating connections that enrich their lives.
• Work at home because the school building does not confine their enthusiasm for learning.
• Do not pass tests (they don’t take them), because their learning is evident and speaks for itself with no metric translation needed.
• Think tests are fun games that they breeze through with confident mastery.
• See the future as their canvas, and school is the time where they are crafting their brushes.
• Believe school is time, not a place – time dedicated to intentional learning.
