Episode description

AltSchool isn't just for AltSchool anymore. Since its founding in 2014, with backing from the likes of Mark Zuckerberg, Andreessen Horowitz, and eBay founder Pierre Omidyar, the San Francisco startup has opened eight of its new-age AltSchools in the Bay Area and New York City. It sees these as mini educational labs where it's working to create a new kind of personalized educational for the 21st century, and now, the company is sharing its philosophies with the outside world.
