BIIE 231: The Growth of Microschools with David K. Richards

This week, Ryan sits with David K. Richards, a nationally recognized education leader and the founder and CEO of Changemaker EDU, a growing network of microschools and an incubator for school founders across the country. Microschools are small schools that vary in funding and location, have an enrollment of 5 to 150 students, and foster a close-knit environment via experiential learning. David discusses growth, myths, traditional education settings vs. microschools, Changemaker EDU’s work, and more. Tune in!
