"The ongoing disruptions in the world are forcing us to make important choices. Despite the seemingly never-ending stream of tools, programs, and methods being offered as “solutions” to what’s broken in education, pause to consider: what are the aspects of school that we want to preserve 10 or 20 years or even longer into the future? What is at the core of our purpose as schools in the world today? In other words, what matters most?....When we wrote the 9 Big Questions in 2021 we urged a sort of recalibration for a much different reality.

Asking “What is so sacred about the school experience that we would fight to keep it into the future?” is the first place to start. It forces us to get to the core of what’s most important about our service to children."
