Middle Resolution Policy Foundation: Have You Ever Wanted to Start Your Own School?

New and innovative ways of delivering education in the Commonwealth are rapidly emerging. Entrepreneurial educators will play a key role in shaping the future of education in Virginia by introducing new technologies, methods, and models to improve the quality and accessibility of education. This concept holds great potential for transforming the education system in Virginia and preparing students for the challenge. We are excited to announce our 3rd annual Virginia Education Summit on May 18 in Maggiono's Italian Restaurant in Richmond! Our past conferences have covered a wide range of essential topics for professionals, parents, and stakeholders committed to excellence in education and providing quality education for all children in all communities in Virginia. This year, we will focus on an exciting trend in education: Microschools. Education in the 21st century should and will look different from the past. While we have all the technological advantages of a modern society, our children are less able to think critically, have fewer opportunities for experiential education, and are restricted by numerous mandates that govern Virginia's public schools.

Parents and educators in the Commonwealth are actively seeking innovative approaches to educate children. We are committed to assisting them in navigating this evolving education frontier. We are pleased that Don Soifer, CEO, and Ashley Soifer, Chief Innovation Officer of the National Microschooling Center, will be our featured speakers at the conference. They bring a wealth of information and experience about this innovative learning environment and will get our conference off to a great start. A full agenda with speakers and panel discussions is coming soon!
