Rebekah Shoaf, Founder & CEO

Welcome to What If Schools™

We help educators design new schools and redesign existing ones that reject the status quo by boldly imagining "What if?”

  • What if schools existed to cultivate a lifelong love of learning?
  • What if schools started by asking students what they want to learn?
  • What if schools were staffed entirely by educators who lived in that community?
  • What if schools focused on changing themselves rather than changing students?


Our work is grounded in our core values of imagination, audacity, and justice.


Our collaborative approach to school (re)design includes extensive community input, prioritization of student voice, pilot phases to test new features, and expert support through every step of the process, from design to implementation, reflection, and iteration.


We are an MWBE-certified business in both NYC and NYS.


Let's talk about how we can support you and your learning community with:

  • instructional and leadership coaching
  • professional learning design and facilitation
  • workshops on preventing and addressing educator burnout
  • literacy resources, events, and experiences
  • consulting and thought partnership
