    Education First Consulting

    Jul 2021 — Present · National, US

    We are a mission-driven strategy and policy organization with unique and deep expertise in education improvement. We partner with practitioners, policymakers, funders and advocates to navigate through complexity to create more people-focused, equitable and inclusive initiatives, strategies and organizations.I work on the Engaged Students team, focusing on instruction, assessment and accountability. As one of our primary focus areas, Education First works with school district, charter management, state and national education leaders, funders and advocates—one-on-one, with senior leadership teams, and in networks or communities of practice—to help envision and advance more effective, equitable and coherent instructional, assessment and accountability systems. This work with system leaders and educators emphasizes making sure disparate policies, initiatives and resource decisions—from choices about curriculum and instruction, to local and state testing, to supports for struggling schools—reinforce common visions and goals for improving teaching, learning and student well-being.
