Who We Are
Board of Directors
Our Board of Directors is made up of leaders who have driven meaningful change across research, policy, philanthropy, and practice. Each brings a deep commitment to ensuring every child has access to well-prepared teachers and plays a vital role in advancing our mission to dramatically improve educator preparation nationwide.
More than advisors, they are partners - helping to guide strategy, steward impact, and ensure we stay focused on what matters most. Let's make teacher preparation better, together.
