Vander Ark, who served as superintendent and the first Executive Director of Education for the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, founded <\/span>Getting Smart<\/span><\/a> to offer advisory and coaching services that focus on the future of education and support more powerful learning to school districts and other educational organizations. He is an advocate for innovation in education and participates in numerous boards and foundations that have the same goals in mind. Vander Ark understands what the future of education is moving towards, and during his visit to Cajon Valley with his Getting Smart team he saw the education system making bounds towards modernization and career-focused education in elementary and middle schools. <\/span><\/p>\n

While visiting different CVUSD schools, Vander Ark and his team witnessed students learning about becoming civil engineers and the things we use everyday that they design. They saw students writing about an experience visiting a dam and learning about water systems. Vander Ark saw kindergarteners learning about being a teacher and second graders studying the art of being a chef. All of these impressive lessons were centered on curriculum and experiences brought to Cajon Valley Union School District by the World of Work program. <\/span><\/p>\n
