Overview
This proposed grant would foster a community of practice among the eight school operators in our proof points network. It aims to develop a collective sense of purpose, vision, and shared projects among the network members and to continuously improve instructional practices and student results within their schools. Activities will include network-wide forums, study tours designed to share exemplary practices and create collective accountability, and documentation of lessons learned to help promote deeper learning practices outside the proof points network.

for the Deeper Learning Leadership Forum
Envision Education hosts the Deeper Learning Leadership Forum, in addition to working with students, schools, and districts to improve student outcomes through the use of its portfolio defense approach. The Leadership Forum is a cohort-based leadership experience that aims to develop, strengthen, and support a group of educational leaders to work at the intersection of equity and design thinking. The grant enables Envision to support education leaders who are knowledgeable of deeper learning and equity issues and positioned to implement necessary changes inside their systems.
