"Baldwin School District Joins National League of Innovative Schools"
Excerpt from article:
The Baldwin School District has been accepted into the Digital Promise League of Innovative Schools, a national network that connects and supports forward-thinking leaders in education.
Baldwin is among 35 districts to be invited to join for 2025–26 — the largest group of new members in the history of the league. This would bring the total to 175 districts that have been accepted across 35 states, representing more than 4.4 million students.
Baldwin was chosen from a competitive pool of applicants for its educational leadership, innovative vision, and commitment to excellence and collaboration, according to Digital Promise, the nonprofit that organizes the league.
“We are incredibly proud to be among the school districts from across the nation invited to join the League of Innovative Schools,” Superintendent Anthony Mignella said in a statement. “Being selected for this prestigious network speaks to our commitment to future-driven educational practices and student success.
“By becoming a member, we aim to leverage cutting-edge ideas and technologies, collaborate with peer districts and visionary leaders on a national scale, co-create solutions that address our unique challenges, and augment our hands-on learning experiences for our students,” he added.
Mignella said the recognition directly aligns with “Baldwin 2035,” the district’s long-term vision that focuses on preparing students to succeed in a rapidly changing world. The initiative emphasizes future-ready skills such as problem-solving, critical thinking, adaptability and technological literacy.
“It is these opportunities that align our district with our vision, ‘Baldwin 2035,’ allowing us to effectively integrate our future-ready competencies into our curriculum,” he said.
Stephanie Rengifo, the district’s assistant superintendent for instruction, said the membership represents both recognition and opportunity.
