WHAT IS "CO-CREATED?"
There are no quick fixes for complex problems, and it doesn't get much more complex and systemic than education. Knowing that, Co-CreatED is an opportunity for us to come together to make change. Let's break down the walls that separate us and work together.
Co-CreatED is a resource for school leaders and classroom leaders who share our desire to make education humanizing and equitable for all students.
In plain language, we want education to be a more human experience-- full of connection & agency-- and we want that for all kids, regardless of zipcode, ability, race, or SES.
We do that by partnering with schools to design customized professional development that meets the educators where they are and helps them move forward in 4 key areas.
We really mean the “co” in co-created; a learning experience is most engaging and impactful when the learners have a voice in it. That goes for kids and adults alike! Therefore our design process is highly collaborative.

Co-Creators = Students. Classroom leaders. School leaders. Community members. Parents and families. All of us.
The "Co-" in "Co-CreatED" is all about:
- Less silos, more collaboration.
- Less blaming and finger pointing, more shared accountability.
- Less oversimplifying the issues, more embracing complexity.
- Less power-wielding and posturing, more liberation.
It's an AND, not an OR, not a BUT.
The path to learning is co-created.
