Episode 99 - Transparent, Authentic and Real
Meet Kate Parsons, the newest member of the CAPS Network team! In this conversation, Kate shares her journey from teacher to principal at Da Vinci Schools to nonprofit founder of Portal Learning. Now serving as Chief Strategy Officer, she brings a passion for authentic, career-connected learning experiences and a pragmatic approach to sustainable growth. Kate and Corey discuss the challenges of scaling while maintaining the human-centered culture that makes CAPS special, the power of employer ecosystems, and why students need experiences that are real—not simulated.

CAPS reimagines education to be a learner centered, profession based experience that catapults young people into passion and purpose. CAPS is going where students lead.
