What Makes Real Change So Hard?
Across New York, districts share the same reality: clear visions, thoughtful plans—and persistent challenges that are hard to move alone.
Introducing the Catalyst Network
The Catalyst Network is designed to provide space for districts to move from planning to progress—together.
- Share resources instead of duplicating effort
- Learn alongside peers navigating similar challenges
- Protect time for the deep thinking that gets crowded out
- Test ideas before committing major time or funding
- Build action plans grounded in your local context
What Participants Will Walk Away With
- Clarity on what's stalling progress—beyond the surface-level "pesky" problems to the root barriers underneath
- Strategies to break the cycle of planning without traction
- Confidence that peers across New York are facing the same realities
- A framework for turning protected collaboration time into real momentum
