Jacqueline Haynes

Associate Superintendent, Charleston County School District

“I can see our growth from year one to three years…After so many years in education, I’m seeing the power of high-quality instructional materials, strong PD, and an amazing team. You can get your teachers where they need to be.”

Dr. Dawn Brooks DeCosta

Deputy Superintendent, Harlem Community School District 5

“This partnership strengthens our district’s focus on data-driven instruction, teacher development, and literacy outcomes. Our educators are gaining research-based strategies to accelerate student learning, and we are already seeing the impact.

Harlem District 5 is one of only three NYCPS districts to show gains in ELA proficiency on the 2024 NYS state exams!”

Kevin Polston

Superintendent, Kentwood Public Schools

“In many cases, our adults in the system aren’t actually experts at professional learning because they are experts at working with kids. When we bring in partners like Leading Educators that have expertise in professional learning…it frees up our headspace and allows us to focus.”

Dr. Simone Wright

Chief of Academics, Denver Public Schools

“The VATT framework has been our foundational document to get really, really clear on how to stand up and revise the process to narrow [our use of technology]. The framework does a good job of thinking through the different constituents and the different questions for each constituent to ensure that you’re not just narrowing to narrow, but you’re being intentional, and you’re really thinking about the instructional core as the driver of this work.”

Shelly Gray

Principal, DC Public Schools

One of my proudest moments this year is seeing our instructional coach stretching our math teachers’ thinking about how to improve instruction from teaching more procedural math to conceptual understanding. The growth is evident.”

Arthur Mola

Principal, DC Public Schools

“It is hard to think of Bancroft and Leading Educators as a partnership. The amazing team at LE has become an intricate part of the Bancroft family in such a way that we do not view them as an external entity, rather a member of our leadership team.”

"You can’t do the work alone, and we’ve been really fortunate to work with Leading Educators....Having the chance to customize support the way that we need it to be customized so that our teachers and our leaders are receptive is rare. We don’t find many partners that will make that total bend to what we need. That’s why this relationship with Leading Educators has been so fruitful.”
Leenet Campbell-Williams, Chief Academic Officer at Detroit Public Schools CD

Taking Education Forward

The world today’s students will inherit is rapidly changing. No matter who they are, where they come from, or how much money their family has, we want to ensure they are for their next step and beyond.

That’s why our work focuses on access to strong core academics but also looks beyond to consider other factors that are critical to student success such as belonging, productive relationships, AI literacy, and connection to the real world.

“When I compare the schools with and without Leading Educators support, there is a very noticeable difference in outcomes. The LE team is flexible in adjusting as needed to meet the needs of the schools—sharing ideas that are coherent, appropriate, and always challenging instruction to improve.”
Andres Flores, Local District Secondary Math Coordinator at Los Angeles USD
