school is life

take a listen...
concern over 
switching schools
via @bhsprincipal

what if we never switch schools.. what if we're all one school. just different hubs for face to face.
what if school is real life.
just like no separate discipline.. no separate school.

all learners.

more from Patrick - i need to read.. soon :)
on race to top
on how/why kids learn












 on achievement and success.. 
we are in the habit of linking every report/data collection to  
ability to present specific 
*academic content 
at a given point in time.
we need to get out of that habit.. achievement/success in that sense is not universal.
we're looking into this idea via student insight....





*academic
one dictionary definition reads -  education designed for students who intend to study at a college ( after high school, or attending a school with such courses  ie: she's on the right track)
we're just wondering - right track for what college ... and what career...
