A LETTER FROM MACKENZIE

We believe children are limitless, and it’s our job to help unlock that potential.

MacKenzie Price

Hi! I’m MacKenzie Price, founder of Future of Education.

Just like you, I’m a parent who wants the best for my kids. When my daughters came home from school saying “Mom, school is so boring,” I couldn’t believe it – they loved learning.

But the system was failing them. The traditional classroom isn’t keeping up with the rapidly changing world around us.

Like so many parents, I found myself asking: What do kids really need to know these days?

And the more I searched, the clearer it became — our children need more than test prep and memorization. They need learning that’s engaging, relevant, and grounded in real-life skills.

I set out to explore what education could look like if we prioritized creativity, critical thinking, and personalized growth. That journey led me here.

Future of Education is a place for practical tools, research-backed insights, and a growing community of parents and educators who know we can do better.

I believe kids are limitless. Let’s help them thrive — and build the future they deserve.

The World Is Changing Fast — But Our Classrooms Aren’t

The old model of memorization and teaching to the test is just not enough. Kids need more meaningful experiences that prepare them to think creatively, solve problems, and grow with confidence in an age defined by rapid change. We believe technology — including AI — should supercharge and personalize learning, not shortcut it. When used well, it helps kids master the basics faster, freeing time for deeper, more human learning: building, exploring, collaborating and solving real problems.

Kids Shouldn’t Just Use AI — They Should Create With It.

When used the right way, AI isn’t a crutch, it’s a superpower.
Kids can use it to brainstorm story ideas, design prototypes, test hypotheses, build interactive games, generate music, or map out business plans. These tools spark curiosity, accelerate iteration, and turn vague ideas into tangible projects. They help students move from “I have an idea” to “I made this.”

The future will be built by kids who ask better questions — and know how to bring their ideas to life.

We’re creating a future of education where efficiency fuels imagination, and students learn how to harness AI with purpose, ethics, and skill. Education should evolve — and empower.

As a student, this is 100% accurate! Our education system needs to be fixed! This has been an ongoing issue for years and nothing will be done to improve it! We need to fix it! 🙌

Jolène Fender

I love this! Kids are not all learning skills abc at the same pace. 👏

Kids are getting labeled so young and it prevents them from reaching their potential! 💔

Stephanie Cavin | Homeschooler

Public school teacher here—people don't realize this, but more and more teachers are pulling their kids from public school and homeschooling everyday. When the ones that are closest to the education system are pulling their kids out of it, it's time to pay attention. ✌️

We support this and agree!!! Let's go!

I LOVE the light that you are shining on education. As a homeschool mom of 5 kids who pulled her kids from the public school system, I have seen such a positive and drastic change in my kids! I'm determined to show how we homeschool and create a love for learning, so others can see there is more then one way to learn.❤️❤️
