COE Spring Forum: Promoting Progressive Democratic Education in an Era of Standardization

A forum and discussion with the principal of Mission Hill Public School in Boston, Ayla Gavins, and a faculty member, Ann Ruggiero.

The Mission Hill Public School in Boston uses a portfolio-based, constructivist approach to teaching and learning, staff-based decision-making and governance and active participation in the Coalition of Essential Schools. Mission Hill School was founded in 1997 by Deborah Meier and is modeled on democratic, progressive education principles. The school offers an alternative to today's current "reform" prescriptions.
