Bank Street’s deep focus on developing schools and communities that help all learners reach their full potential reflects our belief that education is a means to creating a more just and democratic world. Through a collaborative approach to program design, we tackle complex, longstanding challenges in education in new and innovative ways. From building school leadership capacity to supporting students’ career readiness to integrating hands-on, project-based education approaches in public school settings, our team of co-designs customized programs, fellowships, and schools from the ground up, in alignment with community and district demands to realize our vision for effective and equitable teaching and learning for all.
Our Responsive Design team provides adult learning opportunities for districts, school leaders, educators, and communities. These opportunities include:
Empower high school leaders to transform their schools by creating impactful career pathways and work-based learning opportunities that prepare students for future success.
Transforms CTE and industry curriculum by integrating dynamic, hands-on, student-driven, and project-based learning experiences.
Provides tools and support to help teachers, leaders, and students enhance engagement, amplify student voice, foster hands-on rigor, and deliver career-connected learning for improved student outcomes.
If district and school leaders receive intentional, holistic support in creating and piloting innovative models that are responsive to student needs, then schools are better positioned to design (and redesign) learning experiences and structures so that all students can ultimately experience a rewarding career and life that achieves long-term economic security.
