This is a group for people who want to meet and talk about a new paradigm of education. Teachers, parents, or otherwise interested educators who feel that they want more options can attend our events and feel that they are not alone. Public schools today are using archaic methods that do not always reach kids. We can discuss what new methods and schools exist already. We can also start the discussion about inventing methods that do no already exist in education. All are welcome in the conversation about transforming education to meet kids' needs rather than the needs of a bureaucratic, control-based system.
