Everyone is trying to live their best lives.
A true innovator and interpreter of the local landscape takes an interesting look at the current components in the school system that are meant to support yet hinder students to reaching their full potential. We must first fully acknowledge, as a society, that there is a problem and that students do fall short, not because of their own downfalls but because of the weaknesses of the system as a whole. By providing flexibility with scheduling and leaning into students' interests, the school system can be more open to the change and growth it’ll take to teach these kids.
