Welcome!

You have yourself a good one! Actually, Open Space has had quite a run in
Education, although you certainly wouldn't guess it by its popularity or fame.
NEA once did a meeting for 500 of its folks and then several follow ons -- Also
you might want to check in with Elizabeth Ennis, who was, and I think still is,
deputy Super. for District 214 on the North Shore of Chicago. When last heard
from, she had used Open Space with her Principals, apparently to good effect.
Her phone number is 847-364-8603, and if that doesn't work, I have an email
somewhere. Also check with Anne Stadler, who has been working with a whole
school that apparently does its stuff in Open space. <annestad at earthlink.net>

 I didn't do much with your questions -- all good ones -- but check with the
folks who have been there.
