Mike Hardiman - Denver Lab School Humble Badass Educators

My guest today is Mike Hardiman, founder of Denver Lab School, an independent school that plans to use the city of Denver as the classroom. Mike plans to open DLS for the 2022-2023 school year.

In our conversation, Mike discusses some of what needs to be done in order to bring a dream that so many educators think about in starting a school from the ground up to become a reality. He talks about how the combination of his experiences in teaching as well as business school have helped him to develop some of these necessary skills, but how such a key component is having the humility to know what you don’t know and when to ask for help. Mike talks about the exciting and innovative plans he envisions for Denver Lab School as well as his intention of involving various community members to help shape the school.

Thanks as always for tuning in to today’s episode of Humble Badass Educators with Mike Hardiman.
