Start It Up Episode 60: What If Public Schools Were Startup Companies?

  A little duct tape here, a little spit and elbow grease over there....It seems that we are constantly tinkering with and trying to reconfigure public education in the United States.  What if instead, we decided to just start over, completely fresh with a blank canvas? What would the ideal public school system look like? How could we better teach our children?

In the first of a 2-part conversation, UnifiEd Executive Director Elizabeth Crews and Start It Up Host Monty Bruell put on their thinking caps to imagine what building public schools from scratch could be like.  They try to envision a system that works better for students, parents, teachers, administrators, and communities.
