Broken systems

It may be that the system is doing exactly what the system was designed to do.

That the institution is producing the types of individuals it was designed to produce.

That the school is creating the types of thinkers it was designed to create.

Possible that some things aren’t broken, but rather working the way their designers intended.

You can’t fix a system that’s working to spec.

But when the results are found wanting, you can build a new system. A better system. A better school. A better structure. A better culture.

That kind of change isn’t done through light editing. It’s done through bold thinking, intrepid creativity, a posture of empathy, and a commitment to progress.
