Overview
Envision Education — which operates three high schools and a consulting division to share its unique education model — hosts the Deeper Learning Leadership Forum to bring together rising education leaders and provide professional development to help them lead local reform efforts around the country. With this grant, Envision will hire an evaluator to study the forum and determine what influence, if any, the program has had on the systems in which these leaders work. This work will provide insight so Envision can learn more about the program’s initial impact.
