I highly encourage all fellow educators and learners to read study and leverage <em>All In </em>on behalf of the children and families you serve. The future of our schools would be so much brighter if they reflected the type of visionary engaging and high impact school culture Kelsey guides her readers to build. <strong>- Aaron Brenner General Partner of Seton Education Partners; Founder of Brillante Academy and KIPP SHINE Prep</strong></p><p>Imagine a place where every kid in every classroom brings the best version of themselves and learning is thrilling. And now imagine that every adult feels that way as they grow as a professional and serve their students. This is what Kelsey LaVigne has built. I'm so excited that Kelsey is sharing her vision and her practices and eager to see more schools bursting with joy for kids and adults as a result. <strong>- Julie Kennedy Practice Leader Academics and Character Charter School Growth Fund </strong></p><p>Culture exists whether you plan it or not and it's felt and seen in every facet of a school including academics.
