About us
We are a team of educators guided by a simple vision; you should be able to walk into any classroom and see students engaged in the kind of challenging, inspiring, and supportive learning that will open doors and help them reach their full potential. We believe this vision can be a reality for every child, in every classroom, in every school, in every district. We strengthen instructional leadership in schools, school systems, and states to ensure teachers have the support they need to improve learning experiences and learning outcomes for students—with attention to students of color, students experiencing poverty, multilingual learners, and students with disabilities.
