Exploratorium Rendering

Welcome to the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce

By: Emily Dammeyer, Communications Manager, Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce
Free to think. Inspired to lead.
Picture yourself in middle school, at the end of summer vacation. Did you dread going back to a brick and mortar classroom, with rows of desks piled high with textbooks? What if you were instead headed back to school in the "exploratorium" and your curriculum was delivered through fun, hands-on and collaborative experiences? iLEAD Spring Meadows is a new charter school in Toledo based on the paradigm Project-Based Deeper Learning and their official adventure in Toledo began in February 2016.

"If a child can't learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn." - Ignacio Estra
Students learn through collaborative, fun, and hands-on experiences.
iLEAD School Development was co-founded by Amber Raskin and Dawn Evenson in California. Lenny Schafer, from Ohio Council of Community Schools (OCCS), heard about iLEAD and the amazing impact the school was having on the Southern California educational community. He decided to visit the school in person and after numerous trips and meetings he convinced the founders of iLEAD to expand to Ohio. iLEAD Spring Meadows is iLEADs first school outside of California.

The iLEAD Spring Meadows School Board consists of Scott Pullins, Andrea Quigg, Jeffrey Williams, Michele Berry, Irshad Bannister, and LaTonya Wilson. 
Picture
The Spring Meadows location will have 18 employees to start the school year in August. Their culture and curriculum focuses on developing empathy in all learners to allow for respect and an engaging, positive, rich environment.

iLEAD Spring Meadows aims to be a center of the community. They have already established partnerships with the University of Toledo, Toledo Botanical Gardens, and the Fallen Timbers Battlefield Preservation Commission. Their Makery and Exploratorium will be available to the public for use through memberships. The school also offers monthly parent nights and service learning throughout the school year.
