Foundry (Milwaukee) is leading the transformation to 21st Century learning required for the college, career, and life demands of today’s students. For many years, K-12 education has been resistant to change, but the pandemic challenged that resistance. Last April, larger schools and districts reached out to Foundry for its solution that re-engages students, mitigates learning loss, and develops the skills needed for their futures. For example, the company has an agreement with Brooklyn North, a 200,000-student unit of the 1 million student New York City Public Schools, the argest district in the US. The company anticipates expanded adoption in the coming year.
