Celebrating Peter Sibley and the Classroom of the Future Foundation’s “Todd W. Gutschow Visionary & Outstanding Leadership” Award
In a world that’s constantly evolving, the need for innovative and forward-thinking leadership in education has never been greater. This is why the recent presentation of the “Todd W. Gutschow Visionary & Outstanding Leadership” award to Peter Sibley, CEO of EdGate Holdings Inc. and Journeys Map, is such a significant moment.
The Classroom of the Future Foundation (CFF) bestowed this prestigious honor upon Peter, recognizing his lifelong commitment to improving education and his embodiment of CFF’s core mission: to cultivate innovative learning environments and empower learners across their entire educational journey.
A Career Dedicated to Education
Peter Sibley’s career spans decades, reflecting a deep understanding of the diverse needs of learners at every stage of life. His work has been driven by a passion for ensuring that education evolves to meet the demands of the 21st century.
His connection to the Classroom of the Future Foundation is a testament to this dedication. As Peter Sibley himself shares,
“My first involvement with Classroom of the Future Foundation (CFF) was through a longtime collaboration with Ginger Hovenic founding Executive Director. Her passion for educational innovation was contagious and fueled my own. Over the next twenty-five years I had the privilege to engage as a community partner and sponsor. The highlight of my participation in the extraordinary work of CFF was collaborating with Drew Schlosberg to plan and sponsor the inaugural College & Career Pathway Summit which just completed its 7th year. Today under Jane Schlosberg’s leadership and the outstanding Board Chairperson Dr. Leighangela Brady, CFF is more dynamic and impactful than ever. I hope to contribute for many more years to come.”
