Move from LEGACY PRACTICE where leaders are informed of educational policy at the local, state, and national level. Local policies inhibit learner-centered practices that have been identified to LEARNER-CENTERED PRACTICE where leaders will align local policy to remove barriers and support the depth and sustainability of a learner-centered system.  Leaders will challenge the state and national policies that are not aligned to the aspirational vision and advocate for policies that are aligned.

Resources to support your practice:

• Education Reimagined:  Exploring Existing Policies that Present Possibilities to Support Ecosystem Design
