When School Goes Home: Reimagining the Educator's Role
Lipset, Michael; Nathan, Linda F.
Phi Delta Kappan, v103 n3 p39-42 Nov 2021
The High School for Recording Arts in St. Paul, Minnesota, serves students who've had trouble in more traditional schools. Yet, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the school was able to maintain, and even exceed, its prepandemic metrics of achievement. Michael Lipset and Linda Nathan attribute this success to the school's unique staffing structure. Instead of having content teachers attempt to meet the wide array of student needs on their own, the school takes a team-based approach, with traditional certified teachers serving as content advisers who manage student learning and other team members (many of whom have similar backgrounds as the students) addressing students' personal needs. All faculty, no matter their specific role, are called facilitators of learning, but they focus on different ways of engaging students.
