Axis Education Group
Our team’s expertise has been forged in classrooms, schools, district offices and board rooms. Our experience matters because our experiences have resulted in documented differences in the lives of students.
We have led diverse school districts of all sizes in multiple states with collective knowledge developed as teachers, superintendents, chief academic officers, directors of special education/English Learners, and communication leaders.
Our team works to harness the knowledge and skills in the district and schools to build collective efficacy in order to make significant differences in the lives of students, staff and communities.
