Our Story

The collective began with a mission to address the significant deficits in educational services in underresourced schools.

We saw schools stuck and facing staffing challenges that they were unable to solve. They were talking about the problems but few sought to take action to address some of the root causes.

We were left with no choice but to develop a community of dedicated changemakers to provide the support and expertise needed to meet the unique challenges faced by these school communities.

We believe that every student deserves access to high-quality educational services, regardless of where they attend school. Our mission is to build a community of school experts dedicated to making this a reality, one district, one campus, one classroom, and one student at a time.

We are passionate about empowering practitioners to become effective agents of change, driving improvements in your school district, and making a positive difference in the lives of the students and families in your community.
