School System Capacity

School districts today have more of everything — more curricula, more technology, more data, more professional learning — and yet student outcomes have been declining for over a decade. Educator satisfaction is nearing historic lows. Superintendent turnover is rising. The inputs to K-12 education have improved, but the results have not.

The problem is not effort, expertise, or tooling. It is that school districts have become so organizationally complex that the system itself is inhibiting the people within it from doing their best work. We call this the School System Capacity Crisis, and it is the most important challenge district leaders can address over the next decade.
