Puget Sound Consortium for School Innovation

Our objective is to transform public education to better meet the learning needs of all students, particularly those least effectively served by existing programs. We want to shift the structures and practices of schools, districts, universities, and community partners to immerse every student in highly personalized, relevant, and engaging learning connected to a compelling post-secondary pathway for which they are well prepared. We focus on (1) innovations that facilitate student engagement through interest-driven learning in real-world contexts; and (2) developing the innovating capacity of school and system leaders. Our work has three inter-related components: transforming schools, developing new leadership pathways, and innovating professional development.
