Participants in the July Expeditionaries acted as a team of teams. Students and teachers from Bishop Kearney (Brooklyn), Regis (NY), and Fordham Prep (Bronx) worked in discrete teams but were all aligned to the Basecamp mission to contribute to the Common Good through social entrepreneurship. They regularly practiced providing feedback across teams.

The next Expeditionaries experience starts on Friday, October 5, with teams from Sacred Heart (NYC), St. Peter’s Prep (NJ), Bishop Kearney, and Regis.


What if we designed school to be a team of teams?

What if your school’s Mission were so strong, Vision so clear, and Culture so positive that any blend of learners—teachers or students—could come together at a moment’s notice to identify and solve a problem they had never seen before?

Each Wednesday we share a "what if" scenario. These are not suggestions as much as provocations.

If you have a "what if" scenario you would like to share, just send an email (and indicate whether you would like it attributed it to you).
