My Dream School The other night I had a dream that my school was perfect. It got me thinking about my dream school.

Recently‚ I made a list of what I think my perfect school would look like. As I began developing the list‚ I was struck by two things: Firstly‚ how most of it was about making school more student-centered‚ and secondly‚ that I didn’t mention technology once.
