As COVID shattered the routines and lives of students, parents, and educators, it also revealed how outdated schools are and the price of remaining rooted in structures and processes designed for a different age.

In From Reopen to Reinvent, veteran education strategist Michael B. Horn delivers an exceptional and insightful call to action for education professionals and administrators everywhere. The author urges educators to overthrow the existing system—which fails many of its students—and replace it with one that addresses many of the persistent challenges faced by the education system.

Applying illuminating and productive frameworks—including threat rigidity, “Begin with the End,” tools of cooperation, and discovery-driven planning—to the schooling and education context, the book offers prescriptive and holistic approaches to the purpose of education and the effective use of technology. It is a comprehensive design playbook and process written specifically for schooling communities seeking modern solutions to perennial problems.

Readers will discover a set of processes and ideals for schools seeking to implement new strategies for dealing with modern challenges and a way to reframe threats as opportunities to encourage the development of new solutions.

From Reopen to Reinvent provides a practical toolbox for K-12 educators, parents, and school board members to disrupt the educational process and introduce new ways of dealing with old problems. It also belongs in the libraries of professionals working in education-related nonprofits and state education agencies interested in modernizing the increasingly antiquated education system.
