Emily Pilloton, founder of Project H Design, and Matthew Miller, her partner in Studio H–the organization’s high school design build and education program–announced yesterday a new education partner in REALM Charter School in Berkeley. The school is literally on the opposite side of the country from Bertie County, N.C., where Pilloton and Miller have worked tirelessly for the past three years.
While we are saddened to leave Bertie County, we are also thrilled to be joining the staff and administration of REALM Charter School in Berkeley starting this August. For the past two years, we have been inspired by REALM, its teachers, students, and principal / executive director / fearless leader Victor Diaz, who opened the school in August 2011 as a ‘Revolutionary Education And Learning Movement.’ The school’s mission is ‘to cultivate resiliency, develop critical thinking skills, advance knowledge through rigorous studies, and equip students to serve our communities and the world in the 21st century.’
