Ignite Opportunity
For more than a decade, we've worked to close the missing link between student and teacher learning so opportunity knows no limits.
Learning that Changes Lives
Teaching gets more complex every day. That’s why Leading Educators provides unmatched support for teachers to learn what works and adapt it to their context, so they can nurture the brilliance in every young person.
We’re experienced educators, coaches, and designers who believe school systems can deliver real opportunity and real results with better help. Our partnerships put best practices into the hands of school-based leaders, guiding them to affirm identity and create belonging within challenging academics. True equity will come from working smarter not harder. And more importantly, from working together.

Expand Access, Grow Potential
School is about more than learning academic skills. We believe it should offer every young person the chance to grow into their fullest self, inclusive of what they look like and where they come from.
That’s why we coach and train teachers to craft their lessons through a vision called Teaching for Equity. Teachers can expand access to learning by affirming students’ strengths and identities, cultivating productive learning habits, and helping them connect more deeply with others.

Realistic solutions for Complex Challenges
School systems are full of strengths, especially their people. Our job at Leading Educators is to help them see new possibilities, reach their best, and build for the future that all students deserve.
