What is an Evolving School?
An Evolving School engages students as authentic community scientists in the selection, study, evaluation, and communication of diverse school and community improvement initiatives - what we call “community science”. The purpose of an Evolving School is to understand and improve the conditions for equitable learning communities - within their school, throughout their neighborhoods, and in partnership with diverse peers around the world - to meet the needs of all while rapidly adapting to local and global improvement aims.
Audience
By practicing community science, an Evolving School serves everyone in the school community and the wider communities that they impact, up to broader levels of society. We welcome diverse schools including those serving early childhood through early adulthood learners, in private or public settings, and in formal and/or informal spaces.
