I established Learning Options, in 1986, with a vision of networking innovative educators as a means to transform schools - from a system of factory-style schools to a system of self-organizing schools.
Thus, for more than 25 years I have focused my professional energies on networking school-centered change initiatives that engage practitioners in designing, implementing, and learning from their innovative efforts.
The story of how and why I have devoted my career to school transformation is rooted in my own experience as a student in a one-room school (no kidding), as a classroom teacher, and as an elected leader in the National Education Association.
