VIEW FULL TEXT | ISSUE CONTENTS LIST

Stanley Park High was designated a Building Schools for the Future 'One School Pathfinder' in 2006, and charged with being innovative in all aspects of schooling. This article, which prefaces a number of forthcoming contributions about interconnected practices at the school, focuses on the journey of reform, one that has rightly challenged the dominant and compliant view, and that embraces the progressive tradition of comprehensive education in order to unleash the innate creativity of our students and the professional capital of our teachers.
