Visits / Consultations
Hosting educators, school leaders, and school designers on our campus is one way we fulfill our mission: to design, test, and disseminate best practices in K-12 education. We offer a variety of ways for interested members of the education community to come to our campus and share in our work.
Scheduled visits are focused on two main areas: Architecture and School Design and Program Consultations. Program consultations are designed upon request and can be tailored to visitors’ needs. Topics may include: 1:1 device integration, blended learning, literacy, Multi-tiered System of Supports (MTSS), and Universal Design for Learning (UDL). Spring/Summer Institutes and Research in Action Days that take place throughout the year also provide opportunities to visit the P.K. Yonge campus while participating in professional learning events.
