What happens when students stop buying what school is selling?
In this milestone episode, we sit down with Scott Carr (CESA 2, WI) to explore how schools can move from “best practice” to next practice—building systems that prioritize purpose, durable skills, and authentic community partnerships.
Scott shares his journey from a disengaged student to a leader in education transformation, offering a framework for re-visioning, reorganizing, and re-culturing entire districts. From profession-based learning to “do the opposite” leadership, this conversation is packed with strategies to re-engage students and rejuvenate teachers.
You’ll hear about:
Why compliance-driven learning fails—and what replaces it
The 3 phases of building culture change that sticks
How purpose-driven work reconnects students to their future
Real stories of teacher rejuvenation and student ownership
Moving beyond test scores to impact data that actually matters
If you’re an educator, administrator, or community leader, this episode will challenge you to rethink what’s possible in schools—and give you the tools to start.
🎧 Tune in, take notes, and share this with a colleague ready to disrupt education.
