- Andy_Smallman abstract "Andy Smallman (Andrew William Smallman; born 24 May 1963) is the founder and director of Puget Sound Community School in Seattle, Wash. PSCS is an independent school in the Seattle Chinatown-International District for students in grades 6-12. Andy, along with his wife, Melinda Shaw, and a dedicated group of parents, started the school in 1994 to create a model for a new kind of education that helps students build on their strengths and nurtures their intrinsic motivation. The school is personalized to bring out the best in each individual student; for example, the school's graduation ceremony honors the school's graduates for about 45 minutes each through expressions of appreciation. His work shows that when young people are provided a safe, nurturing, and loving environment, and schools stop trying to make them into something they’re not and instead help them become more of who they are, amazing things happen.Andy has gained international attention for his work facilitating classes on the subject on kindness, first offering in-person classes for the school’s enrolled youth and then having the idea to extend the concept globally via email and now the World Wide Web. His online class "The Practice of Kindness" drew national media interest in 2009. It was named "Idea of the Day" from former White House speechwriter and bestselling author Daniel H. Pink. To expand on the interest in these classes, in 2011 Andy and Melinda launched the Kind Living Network , a venture that offers readers inspiring ideas and reflections around the theme of kindness. Kind Living provides classes, an entertaining and informative blog , a newsletter, and a website.Andy has been chosen to be a speaker at "Bloom Seattle," was a luminary at the 2010 Guiding Lights Weekend, and a featured panelist on the subject of compassion at a Compassionate Action Network event. The July/August 2010 issue of Ode Magazine included a feature of Andy and his kindness classes. Since 2012, Andy has been deeply involved in the Compassion Games , creating the Secret Agent of Compassion game in 2013.Andy and Melinda make their home in Seattle and try to spend part of each summer in Nantes, France. They have two daughters, Chloe (1993) and Ella (1996).".
