In this episode, Peter and Alli reflect on the powerful insights shared by Kristy Volesky in last week’s Disrupt Education conversation. We break down the most impactful takeaways—from rethinking the role of schools in community growth to why true transformation can’t happen without bold local partnerships. This isn’t about checking boxes or chasing test scores—it’s about designing learning experiences that align with students’ lives, community needs, and long-term economic vitality. We also explore the dangers of standardizing across different school cultures, the importance of giving educators space to innovate, and why every educator should start with just one community connection. If you're serious about disrupting the system from within, this episode will challenge and charge you up for the school year ahead.🎧 Listen to last week’s full episode with Kristy here: https://youtu.be/pBLwn9Bfj9Q
