Take Teaching to New Heights
Every student deserves instruction that's worthy of their big dreams. That's why we help school systems nurture excellent teaching in every classroom with strategic and scalable support.
Make student success predictable and sustainable.
The future promises today’s young people possibilities not seen by past generations. But the moment they step into their school, whether they can seize those opportunities depends on what and how their educators teach them.
That’s why we help school systems support educators to work toward a common vision of excellence, ensuring all students can develop the deep knowledge, sense of self, and confidence to solve complex challenges, pursue their dreams, and create a better world.
For leaders, it’s hard to know where to focus your resources to build momentum. Working as thought partners, co-designers, and strategists to school system leaders, we leverage research on how students learn and how teachers improve to design systemic solutions that ignite life-changing results.
Most importantly, we don’t just make recommendations—we make them happen.
We Bridge Research, Practice, & Just-In-Time Intervention to Get Results.
We’re not big on bandaids or quick fixes. We’re here to help you grow sustainable, transformational practices that accomplish generational success. Hear what our partners have to say:
Using innovative design and discovery practices, Leading Educators offers tailored and coherent instructional support where it matters most: close to the classroom. Our national network of partnerships and practical research methods allows us to identify what works in similar contexts and make it spread.
211,000+ Students
supported with knowledge-rich, real world learning this year in partner schools nationwide.
5 Rigorous Studies
demonstrate that our partnerships improve students' literacy and math learning, student experience, and teacher retention at higher rates than similar interventions. When resources are scarce, evidence matters.
100% of system-level leaders
say Leading Educators has increased their capacity to lead and focus on the conditions for adult learning. That means doing less better.
13,000+ Teachers
influenced to create change in classrooms at 379 schools this year. Teachers are gaining access to vetted curricula, building understanding, and collaborating more frequently around grade-appropriate and relevant lessons.
"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.
Designed for You, Built to Last.
Effective and sustainable change attends to context. But the past decade of work has also helped us identify common recipes for success. Learn what current Leading Educators partners are trying and accomplishing on the path to their best results yet.
Guess Less, Achieve More.
“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
