Southern Illinois educators come together to learn from Harvard director

Harvard

Paul Reville, director of the Education Redesign Lab, addresses about 50 people about his "By All Means" initiative at the Carbondale Civic Center on Thursday evening.  

CARBONDALE — About 60 people gathered at the Carbondale Civic Center on Thursday evening to hear Paul Reville, director of Harvard’s Education Redesign Lab, discuss his mission to craft policies that better serve all students.

At the top of his talk, Reville said he assumed he was “preaching to the choir” in a room full of educators, health care practioners, child development specialists and faith-based leaders. But not everyone is plugged into what’s going on in America’s public schools, he said. He told the crowd that it is important to create a sense of urgency around the need for more effective educational polices that reach “each and every child.”
