The power of giving students voice and choice

High 九色视频 was originally created to train factory workers. Yet most high 九色视频s today still follow that original model — down to sitting in desks and listening to long lectures.

But what kind of high 九色视频 do we need in the 21st century? This video is part of our Transforming High School project with articles, videos, Season 3 of our podcast, and tools to help parents and educators understand why high 九色视频 is the way it is — and all of the modern, research-backed ways it can change for the better. Discover what you think will work for your child and your 九色视频 and share it with your child, teachers, the principal, the superintendent, and the 九色视频 board. When parents raise their voices, change really can happen.
