Khan Lab School is launching a high school and looking for partners who share its non-traditional approach. Families embrace the Pre-K-8 model but see high school as riskier. The school wants collaborators who believe in its mission to help prove the model works at that level.

I think being an independent school that is trying to create a different vision for education and a different experience. Right. We're not built, and we're not designed as a to do what most schools are built and designed to do. We're trying to really be intentional about having a different outcome. And anytime you're trying to do something different and kind of push back against status quo, it's really great to be in good company and have cheerleaders if they're across the country, you know, thankful that technology can connect us and just having somebody that has gone through it, especially in building a high school, you know, around. We've, in our experience, we've learned that, you know, people are willing to take a perceived risk on their kids, Pre K through 8 experience. But high school comes with its own challenges, and people are afraid to take the risk because the stakes are so high. And so we really, we really want to get it right. And, you know, we're looking for help and support and cheerleader cheerleading to get it right and serve the community well. Our community really wants it, and so we want to do right by them. So just looking for a partner, looking for a partner in that. And it. This seemed like a really great, you know, marriage of purpose and values and, you know, just ability to get it done and to help us along the way.
