We help schools improve the day-to-day experiences students have in and beyond the classroom. We do this by building the capacity of those best positioned to improve student learning experiences—the educators and leaders who work with students daily.
Educators and the environment they work in are the root system of all school communities and classrooms. When root systems are healthy, educators sustain school communities by scanning the health of their students and their school, creatively utilizing resources, and working together to problem solve. When root systems experience instability, educators burn out, instruction suffers, and schools struggle to prioritize or adapt, ultimately restricting students’ opportunity to grow.
We vigilantly attend to schools’ root systems. We develop root systems that unearth problems of practice, build collective efficacy, distribute instructional leadership, and adapt instruction to support equitable student growth.

Imagine a school or entire district where everyone approaches their job as a learner and takes initiative to support each other’s learning. Our partnerships create the conditions that make this possible.
