Aligned structures and mechanisms are necessary, but not sufficient.
Also need fluid and responsive linkages and alignment between practices and people at the level of implementation.

State Policy as Engineers
• Decisions and actions are more distal from children and families
• Tackle issues that transcend local context
• Ex: Governance, finance, data systems, program quality systems, professional development systems

Kauerz, K. (4 Dec 2019). Education Commission of the States, Whole Child Meeting. Denver, CO. 8
State Policy as Gardeners• Decisions and actions are more proximal to children
and families
• Tackle issues at the implementation level, ensuring context-specific, culturally-preserving approaches
• Ex: Community partnerships, shared professional learning, data-driven planning
Today and Tomorrow, you will…• Hear from people doing engineering and/or gardening
work
• Interact with state leaders and experts who operationalize “integrative systems” and “whole child” differently, according to their own context
• Spend time, as teams, deepening your strategic vision and plans
