“I was at this stage in my life where I had nothing to lose: I could...come home and get a job working in corporate social responsibility... But this was a great time to take a huge risk and see how it turned out.” The risk was, of course, starting School House. In fact, the money Weeks had used to start the company was actually compensation from getting hit by a car during her sophomore year of college. -- Rachel Weeks

"Entrepreneurship is the pursuit of opportunity without regard to resources currently controlled."   -- Harvard Business School professor Howard Stevenson.

“I am, three weeks out of the month, in my car, just visiting colleges, going to college bookstores, talking to students, and trying to get a feel for the campus culture...we always try to give each collection a design touch that’s very unique to that campus”. Her visit to MIT yielded five pieces, including yoga pants with iPod pockets, cardigans, and T-shirt dresses. But the most “MIT-esque” elements come from what Weeks admitted as “a little stereotypical... [The creative director Colleen McCann] came up with this equations print t-shirt and hoodie, that we thought was fun, and a little kitschy, that we thought worked for your market.” The School House products are available at the Coop in Kendall Square, and soon, if not already, on the Coop’s online store.

"We’re revitalizing local communities once synonymous with textile production and ‘inshoring’ jobs back to the East coast. We’re creating a modern manufacturing legacy, with a workforce as diverse as its landscape and a can-do candor that’s unmistakeably American. First and foremost, School House is about people. We pay premium prices and work one-on-one with suppliers and apparel workers in our facilities to ensure everyone is paid fairly, treated equitably and instructed with integrity." -- Rachel Weeks, CEO of School House Inc.

We enthusiastically welcome Rachel Weeks as a new member of AmericanMadeHeroes.com

Alexander Hamilton
"Not only the wealth, but the independence and security of a country, appear to be materially connected with the prosperity of manufacturers. Every nation ... ought to endeavor to possess within itself all the essentials of a national supply. They comprise the means of subsistence, habitation, clothing and defense ... The expediency of encouraging manufactures in the United States, which was not long since deemed very questionable, appears at this time to be pretty generally admitted."

   -- Alexander Hamilton ... an American Made Hero!
