We offer world-class leadership programs unparalleled in the field
Through rigorous, long-term programs and coaching experiences, we equip superintendents, administrators, principals, assistant principals and teachers with the skills they need to make lasting improvements.
About usA strong principal in every school, a strong superintendent at the helm of every district
This is our vision. Strong leadership is essential to ensure Texas' 5.4 million students — 10 percent of the nation's public-school students — access a great education. With exceptional leaders in place, teachers are more likely to stay in the profession, and students achieve more.

We know too many kids are missing out on a great education. Yet, there is little appetite to invest in growing the skills, ingenuity and effectiveness of the professionals in Texas’ 1,200 school districts. Through our programs, we see higher retention rates, improved student outcomes and a growing number of educators who are ready to lead.
