Education strategy and leadership services for schools, systems and organizations that support youth to launch the futures of their dreams.

COHERENT SOLUTIONS

Coherence in school design ensures efficiency of resources and efficacy for students. Our solutions build on your context and align related elements for efficiency, efficacy and sustainability. For example, we built a 5-12 College and Career Seminar around school-wide Habits of Success. We developed Seminar teacher look-fors aligned to observation and evaluation rubrics to focus the work for educators.

COMMUNITY CENTERED

The primary purpose of education is to serve our communities. We center those communities and those most impacted by our programs in design and implementation. This includes elevating the voices and talents of students, families, community members and industry partners towards innovative solutions to our most pressing educational problems.

FUTURE READINESS

Our goal is to prepare all youth, regardless of circumstance, to elevate their talents towards success in college, careers and the future they choose. This means robust academic systems K-12 and rethinking secondary and post-secondary models, towards a P-16 approach with meaningful career pathways, accelerated coursework and work-based learning.
