CC Living Lab Schools are implementing effective student-centered, culturally responsive-sustaining, mastery-based learning schoolwide. Living Lab schools:

  • serve as models for the community and beyond, take an active and open-door role that includes hosting visits, offering professional development, and sharing ideas, models, practices, processes, and resources

  • collaborate with CC program team to design and present professional learning for the community and beyond

  • design, implement, and document work on goals that provide innovative solutions/improvements to aspects of mastery-based, culturally responsive-sustaining teaching and learning systems

  • contribute to a library of shared community resources: sets of learning outcomes, rubrics, curriculum units, grading practices, and the like

  • convene a team of admins and educators who meet regularly to lead work on the school’s MC goals, with support from the program team
