Who We Are
We are a collaboration of superintendents, educational union leaders, school administrators, and board members committed to strengthening our educational system.
By challenging traditional norms and creating opportunities for shared ownership, we can build a better future for students and our communities. We are open to learning and growing. We meaningfully connect with each other to create the conditions for authentic collaboration. We courageously embrace new approaches that transform the educational system.

Open-Minded: We embrace Open-Mindedness by pursuing practices that enhance one’s ability to engage with others in an effective and meaningful way, recognizing the values one brings to the work, and cultivating habits of mind that allow one to meaningfully engage in collaboration.
Connected: We practice Connectedness by clarifying shared values and goals and cultivating group habits and practices that enhance collaboration in each district.
Courageous: We embody Courageousness by inviting others into leadership, by challenging "What is", and committing to building a shared future where we all thrive.
