"I grew up in the city," Juan Gutierrez, principal of Patrick Henry, told me. "I'm a product of Chicago Public Schools. I remember being in a traditional classroom where I just sat and took whatever they taught me. I wasn't empowered to lead any of my learning. And I feel like we're doing students an injustice if we don't create an environment where we're doing everything we can to value their differences and really support them in the areas they're good at and also the areas where they need to grow."
