Dr. Vito Perrone once remarked, “We should all exert caution every time we hear that something related to schools is new. It usually means that those speaking of the new haven’t chosen to examine the historical record.” It is therefore with humility and reverence for the giant shoulders on which we stand that we work toward our dream to design a graduate school of education. 

At the Deeper Learning Institute, we see teachers as intellectuals. As we work to create the ideal learning community in which new teachers are developed, we are humbled by how much we are learning ourselves. It is an incredible feeling to be part of this community that is creating something new together from the ground up. The revolution is happening here—and it is the most important and exciting work we can imagine.
