Sector Challenges We Solve

K-12

With the proliferation of education options for students in recent decades, unintended consequences of standardized testing, and other seismic shifts in the educational landscape, it is increasingly challenging for schools to provide high-quality, student-centered education while retaining talent and remaining financially viable. Our unique education solutions address the three core categories of challenges in primary education:

Administrative

Equal access to funding, disparate funding structures, and related achievement gaps
Creating effective board governance relationships and collaboration
Managing/coordinating competing programs and strategies
Staying attractive/ competitive when students have a large range of school options

Teacher-Related

Attracting and retaining talent
Managing the proliferation of assessments; equipping teachers to maintain a student-focus within a framework of test-focused incentives
Overcoming misalignment and clarifying measures of success
Maintaining a customer service mentality

Student-Related

Fostering student achievement
Adapting to and addressing changing student demographics
Ensuring family/parent engagement in schools and education

Higher Education

Colleges and universities face many of the same challenges as K-12 schools, including student retention, changing student populations, non-existent collaboration between faculty, dysfunctional communication between faculty and administration, and competition for funding. In addition, higher education must also tackle accreditation requirements, tenure demands to publish in peer-reviewed journals, and the transition from face-to-face education to online courses. Underpinning these specific issues is an archaic system that invites faculty and students to focus on themselves and emphasizes distinctions—between faculty and administration, faculty and faculty, and faculty and students—through appearances and titles.
