Future Ready

Description

A growing number of Christian schools are responding to adaptive challenges and missional opportunities by innovating new structural, financial, and operational models for Christian education. The research in this book traces the stories of eleven Christian schools and networks that have engaged in fundamental mindset changes around what it means for Christian schools to be future-ready. More than tweaking a practice or process here or there, they have merged schools, started online academies, developed microschools, leveraged school choice funding, formed Christian school districts, shared backend functions with other schools, engaged in entrepreneurship and facilities leasing, started brand-new schools, and provided inclusive education for students of all abilities. The stories and strategies shared will inspire leaders to think innovatively, strategically, and above all, missionally about how to reach future generations with the love of God through healthy, thriving Christian schools. - Back cover.
