Belonging

Axis Education Group supports leaders, boards, and communities who want to transform the learning environment for each child who enters our schools. Belonging is one of the greatest challenges confronting schools today.

We have experts who are on the front lines of schools and communities working to build a more equitable education system. School equity starts with the board of education and the policies it champions. Equity needs leaders who are willing and able to listen, understand, and stand with and be allies of our Black, Latino, Asian, and Indigenous students.

Axis Partners understands the impact of belonging on our scholars. Student advocacy has become one of the most powerful movements in education and politics today. Student voices matter, and it is time to listen. Our team has worked in schools for decades and has worked with our scholars to determine structures that they believe will lift their voices so they can create the change they want and need.

We believe in the goodness of all humanity. This principle drives our Axis Community Conversations. We provide an avenue for community members to come to the table and build a more instructive and purposeful road map forward. We are not interested in creating debates where there are “winners and losers”. Our approach is about lifting the spirit of its citizens to encourage sustained community conversation and engagement. The topics of race, inclusion, equity, and sexual identity are not easy conversations, and we take the time that is needed to cultivate honest, thoughtful conversations with the goal of achieving the intended outcome.
