Description

Listen to part of our interview with Rona Wilensky, creator and first principal of New Vista, an alternative high school in Boulder, Colorado and Ivette Visbal, a founding faculty member and currently the school's Dean of Students. Listen for evidence of how these two leaders wanted to change the concept of high school education relative to instruction, student choice, responsibility, and community involvement. Listen, too, for how "healthy" played into their thinking about the school culture.
