Geoffrey Canada Our Failing 
Schools
Education is a business 
• One size fits all. If you get it, fine, if you don’t good luck.
Education does not work well, but it has not 
changed 
• 1840’s schools ran all year, but summer started after then and hasn’t 
changed.
Things we know help 
• Prekindergarten 
• Health Services 
• Sports, recreation 
• Arts 
• Test data at the end of the year. Too late to use it
Keep making change! 
• Push the science forward. Innovation!
100% high school success at Geoffrey’s 
schools 
After High School. Refuse to let kids fail. Encourage. Harass.
