“When people are buying a new car, they don’t ask how long it took to build,” said Bob Wise, president of the Alliance for Excellent Education and former governor of West Virginia. “Instead, they ask how well it performs. For too long, the nation’s education system has promoted students based on how long they spent sitting in a classroom rather than what they have learned. New Hampshire’s experience, although still evolving, holds tremendous promise as an approach for improving student learning outcomes in a system that encourages advancement by demonstrating competency instead of completing seat time.”
NH High Schools• Eliminated the “A–F” and numbered grading system
and replaced it with ratings that include “not yet competent” and “insufficient work submitted”
• Deemed not yet competent are offered interventions until they reach mastery, including online tools, one-on-one teacher time, and student collaboration
• Adopted innovative approaches– Digital learning– Flexible scheduling– Extended school day

In some ways, I have always had elements of Design Thinking in the way that I have worked and thought about schools, but Ihave had no real process to validate some of my ideas.
