Founded in Chicago in 1991, the Small Schools Workshop has become the premier resource for small schools creation, design and restructuring. The Workshop provides schools and school districts with an experienced team of school design coaches and teacher professional development experts that can guide the school transformation process from beginning to end.

The Small Schools Workshop has developed its process from a strong research base. Unlike many other organizations in the field, the Workshop won't provide a prescriptive, prepackaged program. Rather, we start from the unique conditions within and around each school and school district. It's a process that engages the entire school community, including all stakeholders, in the process of shaping and feeling a sense of ownership over the small learning communities they have created.
