Our Work
Connecting Ideas. People. Possibility.
At School of Thought, our work begins with people. We design experiences, programs, and systems that bring learning to life across schools, communities, and organizations. We don’t just advise or teach, we co-create. We measure what matters. We turn insight into action.
At School of Thought, we help schools, workplaces, and organizations co-design and sense-make solutions with a People-Based Learning lens:
People-Based Measurement: We co-design people-based measurement models to help schools and organizations see growth in ways that traditional metrics often miss.
Cross -Section Experience Design: Designing learning experiences, workshops, and initiatives that foster connection, equity, and shared problem-solving.
Research Translation & Sense-Making: Turning complex evidence into actionable practices that people can use to drive meaningful change.
Community & Cohort Engagement: Curating cross-school, cross-sector learning communities to share insights, celebrate progress, and co-create solutions.
Visual Storytelling:

Privileges Must Be Shared: Let's Stop Tokenizing the Wisdom of Practice
Increasingly, organizations and schools are investing resources in positions focused on research, evaluation, and learning with the expectation of better integrating research into their work, as well as drawing on organization experience to contribute to fields of research. These individuals frequently serve as conduits between two separate worlds, the world of practice and the world of research. Based on our own experience working as research partners within organizations, we recognize the need for new models and paradigms that can offer a pathway for these individuals and organizations to conceptualize this necessary integration.
