Colin McGinnis is the CEO of South Side Early Learning, a high-quality early learning school founded in 1922. He’s passionate about early education and ending the disparities that prevent young learners from accessing the education they need to develop a solid foundation. He’s also working to end low wages paid to the teachers who influence children’s success through life.
When South Side and PAST had the opportunity to come together and rethink what education could look like, we developed a moonshot together of what the future of education could look like from a blank slate.
We talk about what the future should look like, how to attract quality talent in early education, and the importance of starting early and continuing that education moving forward.

Taking a moonshot approach to education
Being a citizen of our community
