Susan Cherwinski, @SusanCherwinski, and I found a time in the schedule, requested approval, started a crowdshare idea/links collection doc, and are now beginning to reach out to our PLN near and far for links and information.
Matt Arguello, @Matt_Arguello, an educator from Los Angeles was the first to answer our call with the following links:

The next stage is lots of reading and research to get the project going. Then at the start of the year, we'll query the students and parents for more ideas about materials and activities.
We've also scheduled a LearnLaunch event as part of our research.
There are many events that can take your attention away from what's important at the beginning of the school year, but planning an initiative like this places you right where you should be--planning for optimal, student-centered learning and innovation.
If you have ideas or links for us, please let us know. As my son recently stated about a job prospect, "It's great to be a part of something new, the process of building and creating a positive endeavor."
