Leader. With extensive experience in education and a passion for reimagining traditional models, Smith is uniquely equipped to lead The Levitt Lab into its inaugural year and beyond.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Rooted in reimagining education<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smith\u2019s journey in education began as a Teach For America Corps Member in Metro Atlanta, where he taught social studies, economics and AP U.S. Politics &amp; Government. Even then, he blended traditional learning with creative approaches to engage students.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The limitations of the traditional education system became a defining motivator in his career. \u201cThis system, born out of the era of standardization and industrialization, hasn\u2019t truly evolved,\u201d Smith explained. \u201cIt\u2019s to the detriment of our students.\u201d This realization led him to pursue a Master\u2019s degree in School Leadership, with a focus on innovative school models, at the Harvard Graduate School of Education.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Armed with this expertise, Smith returned to support a school redesign centered on arts-based learning before eventually leading the Forest School Online.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Megan Hanley, Executive Director of School Design at ASU Preparatory Academy, shared why Smith is the perfect fit to lead The Levitt Lab, explaining, \u201cWe were looking for a dynamic leader who not only had experience in school redesign, but also someone who had worked in a mastery-based system. Max\u2019s skills and background complemented both of these things from his work in turnaround schools, starting the Forest School Online and with his most recent work in a mastery-based post-secondary model.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hanley also emphasized an especially apropos connection, noting, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMax is a long-time follower of Steve Levitt, founder of The Levitt Lab, and even used his book, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Freakonomics,<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to teach his high school economics course. He not only understood the vision, but has adopted the vision. We cannot wait to watch this program grow and excel under his leadership.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-161276 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/maxwell-smith-reimagining-education.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 639px) 98vw, (max-width: 1199px) 64vw, 770px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/maxwell-smith-reimagining-education.jpg 1540w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/maxwell-smith-reimagining-education-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/maxwell-smith-reimagining-education-1024x648.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/maxwell-smith-reimagining-education-768x486.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/maxwell-smith-reimagining-education-1536x971.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/maxwell-smith-reimagining-education-640x405.jpg 640w, https:\/\/asuprep.asu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/maxwell-smith-reimagining-education-1200x759.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Maxwell Smith\" width=\"1540\" height=\"974\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Bringing The Levitt Lab mission to life<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Though Smith will uphold many of the responsibilities of a traditional principal, his role as Founding School Leader goes beyond that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI\u2019m the one who ensures The Levitt Lab\u2019s vision becomes a reality,\u201d Smith explained. \u201cThat means overseeing every aspect of the school\u2014from enrollment to stakeholder engagement, building the school\u2019s culture and creating partnerships. My job is to embody the learning methods The Levitt Lab is built on and share that vision both within the school community and externally, so the impact of this reimagined model of education can spread system-wide.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smith has clear goals for The Levitt Lab, starting with a strong launch this fall. \u201cThe immediate priority is welcoming our inaugural class of 9th to 12th graders,\u201d he said. \u201cLong term, I see systemic impact. I want to use data to generate insights that other schools and districts can replicate.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI see this new model creating waves in the labor force, in people\u2019s quality of life and in their communities,\u201d he said. \u201cWith an alumni network that stays connected, we\u2019ll see how these changes play out nationwide.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When asked what excites him most, Smith\u2019s enthusiasm was evident. \u201cEverything! But if I had to pick one thing, it has to be meeting the students and families,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>About The Levitt Lab<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At its core, The Levitt Lab is about creating an educational environment that prioritizes curiosity, personalized mastery-based learning and real-world readiness.
