Summary
Details

Learn Outside: Rising Together to Disrupt the Status Quo in Education is a revolutionary exploration of the current state of education and the urgent need for transformative change. This compelling book takes readers on an insightful journey through the history of education, uncovering how we arrived at our present educational landscape and why a significant disruption is necessary for progress.

The narrative of Learn Outside is enriched by the voices of educational researchers and influencers who are pioneering innovative educational practices across the country. These thought leaders, including Michael Fullan and Tom Vander Ark, provide a diverse array of perspectives and experiences, showcasing the groundbreaking work being done in various educational settings. Through their stories, the book delves into the roles of district leaders, building leaders, educators, and students who are actively participating in and benefiting from educational environments that dare to do things differently.

One of the key themes of Learn Outside is the power and potential of community partnerships in reshaping education. The book emphasizes that true transformation requires a collective effort, a symphony of voices and actions rising together to challenge and change the status quo. It advocates for accessible, innovative education for every student, education that not only prepares them for college and career but also opens doors to high-wage opportunities.

The narrative spotlights the exemplary work of Larry Garatoni and the successes at the Career Academy Network of Public Schools in South Bend. The school's commitment to experiential learning from kindergarten through 12th grade, its emphasis on career pathways, and its focus on college preparedness exemplify the impactful change that is possible.

Learn Outside is more than just a book; it's a call to action, an invitation to educators, students, community leaders, and policymakers to unite in disrupting the educational status quo for a brighter, more equitable future.
