Three classmates in the Harvard Doctorate of Education Leadership Program started Building 21. Originally the product of their collaboration on a class design assignment, the concept for Building 21 evolved through a series of meetings, discussions, site visits and learning tours across the country.
Our goal has remained constant since that first day: to design a school model that adapts to meet learners where they are, and helps them to pursue their interests and passions on a pathway to college and career success. We firmly believe that our design efforts will always be a work in progress—a process of continual building.
