The conversations

Bring your new ideas, examples, and voice and help us design a broader vision for education in the 21st century.

- How can we build stronger connections between schools and communities?

- Is there something you can imagine doing (either alone or with others) to move forward?

"It's time to start making connections," says Annie Kidder, executive director of People for Education. "For too long the conversation about education has happened in isolation from the rest of our public lives."

Over the next year, People for Education, with partners like the Ontario's Social Planning Councils, the Ontario Physical Health Education Asssociation, the Canadian Education Association and others, will travel the province - talking to the usual and the "unusual" suspects. Parents, educators and school board members will be part of the conversations, but so will be business leaders, municipal planners, public health officials, community groups and more.
