In this episode, Dr. Jason Glass, Commissioner of the Kentucky Department of Education, shares his vision for public schools in Kentucky through the launch of a new statewide United We Learn initiative that's built around the three big ideas of creating a more vibrant experience for every student, encouraging innovation in our schools – especially when it comes to assessment, and creating a bold new future for Kentucky’s schools through collaboration with local communities. At the center of the United We Learn initiative is a unified commitment to Deeper Learning, a push for a statewide Portrait of a Graduate, and opportunities for school districts to share innovative ideas through Local Laboratories of Learning (L3s) that pave the way for a new approach to assessment and school accountability.
