A Disciplined Life is the heart of Perspectives Charter Schools I am Patrick. I am Perspectives.

y favorite A Disciplined Life principle is Think critically and be inquisitive. Through A Disciplined Lifethe signature social-emotional learning curriculum at Perspectives, I urge my students to descriptively analyze their world and surroundings. By asking questions of me and others, they are able to articulate their thoughts through compelling writing and spoken word. In addition, they are able to form persuasive and powerful arguments. As I study the principle of think critically and be inquisitive, I am reminded to keep asking questions and improve my own education. At Perspectives We Are Transformative Educators. Transformative education moves young adults from seeing education as an acquisition of facts and

knowledge to being able to solve problems inside and outside the classroom. We are seeking transformative teachers who believe that all of our students can go to college, and who know that an education that addresses the whole child will help them succeed once they get there. We are a growing network, and we aggressively promote from within; our great teachers become instructional leaders, and 100% of our principals were once Perspectives teachers. With ve schools on the South Side of Chicago, Perspectives Charter Schools is transforming public education. To learn more and apply, visit www.pcsedu.org.
