uh self-fulfilling prophecies without you even realizing it you know and then you know it's like i stay in um remedial classes to eighth grade and then i say hey you know i'm still remedial classes they're like haha we told you it's like but you're the one who put me in real causes for your kids
SBK School.
It would look like a school that already exists called Bridges Academy.
I visited them and they just started a training program for twice exceptional.
There's early faculty members, one of their first faculty members, and they really get those kids.
You know, I feel like when people ask me design a school, you know, I feel like it takes a lot of hubris.
Just say you know the right way to design a school.
I never really liked that question.
And I don't really like people who answer that question too readily.
I'm always suspicious.
You know, there's people with education writers, you know, who think they know the answer.
I think that a lot of what I would do is have it be student driven, you know, like sort of let them tell us to a certain degree what they need and be like.
How did my favorite psychologist, Abraham Maslow, put it?
He said we should be the role of horticulturists, like really trying to get people.
And shape what's already there.
And I always like that metaphor of the horticulturist, you know, that as sure like this Taoistic helper, you know, from Buddha, Buddha's philosophy.
I like the idea of teachers as Taoistic helpers, you know, guiding the learning process, but not forcing cramming memorization down, you know, down their throat knots.
Not allowing them to change and grow, you know, so part of the school system would involve constant check-ins, check-ins with the students.
You know, what, are you ready for more challenges, you know, like every year, right?
For next grade, do you want to take it up to the next level?
