 Since 2006, Blue School has served young
learners in Lower Manhattan and across
New York City as a pre-primary and primary
school focused on creativity, compassion,
and communication in the modern world.
Established through a collaboration among
the original members of Blue Man Group
and some of the most enlightened experts
on educational theory and best practices
today, Blue School benefits from advisors
such as Pam Clarke, David Rockwell, Dr.
Dan Siegel, and Sir Ken Robinson.
 Sir Ken Robinson, PhD, in particular, is one of
the foremost experts on the arts, creativity, and
innovation in education today. He rose to
prominence in 1998 while working for the UK
government after publishing a report on his
research on creativity, culture, and education
in UK schools (aka the Robinson Report), which
sounded an alarm about the continuation of
19th century educational practices. His 2006
presentation on the arts and creativity in
schools is the most watched TED Talk of all time,
at over 28 million views, making him a
household name and a globally recognized
authority on school reform.
