Indistar was born in 2008, in one state for a select group of persistently low-achieving schools, and has since been changing and adapting and fitting to the contexts of 25 states and thousands of schools across the performance spectrum. We believe it is now poised to up the ante, to raise the stakes, to take a leap forward as a pesky little innovation machine. The innovators in this brave new world will be the states, districts, and schools that have been fitting Indistar to their particular contexts.
