Board Voices: Why Strategy 2035 Matters

In this episode of Inside the Engine Room, Board Chair Eugene Dalton and Director Anne Pekin share a governance perspective on Strategy 2035 - why the Board endorsed it, what it sets in motion, and the hopes it holds for students and school communities.The conversation explores how the Board is keeping the strategy alive in its work, what they are already noticing in schools, and what is giving them confidence in the direction ahead. A key focus is the role of Collaborative Innovation Research Prototypes (CIRPs) as the engine of action, helping turn strategy into practice and make progress visible across the system.
