 In over 500 programs across the nation, the Public Montessori movement is answering the call for equitable access to 21st century learning— with a century old pedagogical tradition. Join Carly Riley and Dawn Bradley as they discuss how one public program in Memphis, TN is utilizing the Montessori pedagogy to close opportunity gaps, foster strong community partnerships, and build powerful learning environments for children and adults.  This multifaceted workshop will offer a firsthand account of the impact of Montessori in the public sector through the voices of families, community stakeholders, and educators engaged in this powerful work.
