Since Possip’s inception we’ve had one mission – to strengthen schools and communities through the power of feedback. To that end, we have constructed our technology platform and are constantly improving it to collect, analyze, and present that feedback in an actionable way for leaders.
Shani Dowell, Possip CEO & Founder, shares the intent and vision behind Possip’s new Membership community.
In tandem to growing and sustaining our technology, we have always strived to strengthen schools in two additional ways:
-
- Build a community of strong, mission-driven educators that value the perspectives of families, students, and staff
-
- Create and share content that integrates the rich and diverse perspectives of families, students, and school staff
Possip is proud to introduce a new Membership community that delivers and builds on a long held vision.
The Story of Blue and Yellow Paint
Early in my experience as an educator I heard a story about blue paint and yellow paint. The point of the story was that letting bad practices and mindsets creep into your educational practices was akin to a drop of blue paint in yellow paint. As soon as you drop a little blue into yellow paint – it is no longer yellow. It is a little green. It may be a fine color – however it is no longer what it was intended to be.
We aim to be a community for those who:
-
- believe in the power and potential of families, students and staff
-
- believe we will be stronger by working both WITH each other and listening TO each other
-
- seek to get better day after day and year after year
We strive to grow a community that values that yellow paint – a community that protects and honors the constant growth and commitment the work of education commands. All of us aim to be a place where people can come to believe the best about schools, students, families and staff. We also aim to foster a network that works together to be stronger – and while being clear-eyed about the challenges in front of us, solutions-driven, and community-driven in our approaches.
We hope you will join us as we build out this community, content, and the resources that will be contained therein.
