ABOUT US

Educating for a brighter tomorrow.

Our Mission

We design, implement, fund, and support innovative programs to recruit, develop, retain, and elevate both new and veteran teachers and school leaders.

Our Vision

We see every Michigan public school enriched with skilled, highly-trained, and strongly supported educators who champion their students' aspirations and individualities, fostering both their academic excellence and social-emotional well-being.

Our Core Values

  • We root every decision in children, pushing ourselves to reach consensus on what is best.  We humbly hold ourselves and our teammates accountable, remaining open to opportunities for reflection and growth.

  • Individually and as an organization, our actions are in service of equity, in all its forms.

  • We seek opportunities, continuous improvement, and a higher level of understanding.  We maintain curiosity to learn and improve.

  • We stay committed to our mission through trials and adversity. We express disagreement openly, we do what we say we’re going to do.
