Join MV Ventures for a design sprint built around our newest research, The Flow of Perpetual Learning. Designed for educators and school leaders, this session unpacks what it really takes to sustain growth at scale which includes five interlocking cultures of practice, from a shared model of instruction to data used for learning, not blame.

Using our new Transformation Guidepost tool, participants will assess where their own school stands across these five cultures in real time, then prototype practical next steps: sharper Learning Walks, more purposeful goal-setting conversations, and data routines your team can actually trust. Walk away with a personalized roadmap, not just a framework, but a clear next move for your school. Spots for this Design Sprint are limited and filling fast, so register today to hold your seat.

On this expedition, participants will join members of the Mount Vernon team for a half-day of deeper learning and connect with expert practitioners on a guided Learning Walk. Experience how Mount Vernon looks at the whole child (PS-12) through the lens of real-world project work. Topics will include Design Thinking, Inquiry Based Learning; Inter/Multi/Transdisciplinary Learning, Innovative & Flexible Spaces, Maker, Design & Engineering, and Competency Based Education with a focus on personalization.

Engage in an experiential workshop using Mount Vernon’s focus on regenerative school culture. Participants will use Mount Vernon’s design thinking methodology, Compass, to discover, define, design, and deploy prototypes of future goals and initiatives for their unique school communities.
