Great day talking with #WilliamsCollege students and faculty about school change. It's interesting to reflect on lessons learned in my 34 years as a school reformer.

Student voice, absolutely. But it's not students' responsibility to expend the emotional, intellectual, and other labor required to transform conditions harming them. That's OUR responsibility. If we listen to what they demand every day we will have much of the info we need.

Last week I presented a one hour session on the the link between achievement culture and teen mental health. One teacher called it, "the most impactful educational PD I have received in my career." Shoot me a message if you want to learn more about it.

It’s time to talk about “evidence” instead of “data” (read: standardized test scores)

Schools are called “data-driven” if they engage in protocols around data and goal-setting, but how critical and in-depth are their inquiries? We have to ask the right questions if we want to know what changes need to be made.

Have you noticed that almost all “good” schools serve predominantly white and upper middle class kids? It looks different if we measure learning growth rather than the raw test scores that simply reflect those demographic differences.

Please stop using "elite" to describe highly rejective, resource and opportunity-hoarding education institutions. You are perpetuating a myth.
