​Outside organizations can be more expansive in their view of what it means to be educated, as well as what learning and schooling includes. So often, we're limited in how we view the process of school — part of expanding this perspective involves working with communities, working with others in our industry. As we do, we become better collaborators and are in a better position to help schools and students have experiences that are more holistic, more integrated.
