Transforming Education Together
About us
For more than ten years, Leadership ISD has empowered communities and school leaders in North Texas to drive our education system toward greater educational equity. We are so proud of the work we have accomplished in the past decade as we have grown from a single fellowship to a trusted organization that has trained nearly 2600 community leaders, engaged 500 coalition members, and successfully influenced 28 policies and practices that are racially equitable and student-centered. Additionally, we have supported 264 school board trustees in 33 districts, giving them tools and resources to govern effectively and better serve the communities they represent. Today, through leadership training, coalition building, and trustee engagement, we continue to build and support ecosystems of trust and accountability that lead to improved outcomes for all students. Together with our network, we are transforming public education.
