Forum 3: Red Tape in Schools

America’s schools were already mired in red tape before COVID-19. Now a system unable to adapt to predictable daily challenges must innovate with distance learning and distancing protocols. 

The silver lining to this crisis could be a chance to reimagine how schools are organized. Our proposal is here. At noon on Tuesday, July 28, our Campaign for Common Good is bringing together six leading experts to discuss possible new structures to liberate individual initiative in schools. 

The panel will include:

  • Maddie Fennell, Executive Director, Nebraska State Education Association

  • Rick Hess, Resident Scholar and Director, Education Policy Studies, American Enterprise Institute

  • Paul Hill, Founder, Center on Reinventing Public Education; Research Professor, University of Washington Bothell

  • Janet Horton, Partner, Thompson & Horton LLP

  • David Osborne, Director, Reinventing America’s Schools Project, Progressive Policy Institute; Co-Author, Reinventing Government

  • Chris Stewart, CEO, brightbeam

  • Philip K. Howard (Moderator), Chair, Common Good

Preregistration is required. 

Thank you for your continued support of our Campaign.
