Head of School at Premier Arts Academy, a charter school in Elkhart Indiana.

Carl talks to Ashley about starting a charter school and how PAA is different from conventional school. After working in the event hosting business, Ashley decided to go back and get a degree in education. She worked in Chicago area schools for a while but felt like the system didn’t work well for many learners. She moved back to Elkhart and started the Elkhart Education Foundation in order to inspire innovation in Elkhart public schools. The foundation made some good impact on kids and teachers, but Ashely wanted to do more. She proposed an arts magnet school to the school corporation leadership but they did not share her vision, so she decided to create her own school. PAA is based on bringing joy back to school, making younger learners and adult staff alike happy to come to school and feel creative. PAA is dedicated to arts integration, challenge based learning, and small group learning for every child every day.
