Transcend is a national nonprofit that leads innovation in school design in close partnership with visionary school operators around the country. We focus on innovation in every aspect of the holistic design of schools -- from the aims of school, to students’ experience, to the use of time, to the roles of educators and families and surrounding communities, to physical space, and much more -- to prepare all students for far greater success in the 21st century.
We do this through:
- developing and spreading new school model designs, in close partnership with visionary school operators (in district, charter, and independent schools)
- building a diverse, cross-disciplinary force of talent for the sector, who can perform the deep R&D needed for school innovation
- building and sharing actionable knowledge for the sector on how to do school model innovation and change management
