[OSList] FW: ost in school change?

[Harrison Owen]

Raffi - You might check out the Haitian experience. It isn't a school turn
around - more like a system wide effort. However for examples of OS in Hairy
situations, educational and otherwise - those folks go to the top of my
list. Also, our friend Michael Pannwitz (where are you Michael?) should have
basket full. As I recall most of his early Open Spaces were with schools. He
did all of that so long ago that some of his (elementary) school
participants are now doing lots of Open Space. What goes around comes
around.

Subject: [OSList] ost in school change?

 

friends,

can you point me to any examples of OST being used to turn a school around,
a schoolwide OST?

I'm sure there are examples in the archives, and will be sure to sift
through them. 

(if the names of particular places, facilitators who held the space for
those events that may be in the archives come to mind, do point those out if
you can, it'd make the task of searching the archives easier.

I have a meeting with a principal tomorrow of a large inner-city school here
in San Diego, and it would be great to cite some examples of ost being used
for school "change," if he should ask.

Of course, I know that one can cite examples until one is blue in the face,
but i think offering those examples- if they are requested- does offer some
level of reassurance (whatever that means!).

thanks much!
appreciatively,
raffi
