Letter from S cott morgan fo u nder & ceo Dear Friend, This is an incredibly meaningful time for me to reflect on all that Education Pioneers has accomplished in collaboration with so many outstanding people and partners. As we celebrate our 10th anniversary in 2013, we not only look back at the impact we’ve made, but also forward to our next 10 years of work. We plan to attract 10,000 new leaders to work full-time in the education sector by 2023 to advance our vision of making education the best led and managed sector in the United States. The sector is hungry for more top leaders and managers, and I’m proud that Education Pioneers is one of the leading organizations addressing this critical need at scale. The importance of leadership became very clear to me when I served as legal counsel for Aspire Public Schools, a high-performing charter school network. There, surrounded by a talented, multidisciplinary management team, I saw firsthand the profound effect that leaders can have on education from outside of the classroom. I also recognized the opportunity to build a pipeline of talented leaders to advance the work of high-impact organizations. As a result of these experiences and observations, Education Pioneers was born in 2003. The following year we welcomed our inaugural class of nine Education Pioneers Fellows who worked with seven Partner organizations in the San Francisco Bay Area. In 2012 we had a network of over 1,600 leaders, with 390 Fellows working in 16 cities nationwide with more than 180 Partner organizations. In 2013, we are welcoming approximately 450 new Fellows who will serve in school districts, charter school organizations, education nonprofits, and other education organizations across the country. 1
As we enter our second decade of work, Education Pioneers will continue to grow and scale our programs successfully, while increasing our focus on supporting our talented Alumni in driving long-term impact in full-time leadership roles with key Partner organizations. The first step is to ensure a powerful Fellowship experience for thousands more top emerging leaders by providing the training, tools, and support to ensure our Fellows thrive within our Partner organizations so that our Partners benefit from Fellows’ contributions. Our second main focus is to increase the effectiveness of our Alumni in education, and we are excited about our major collaboration with The Broad Center and the Strategic Data Project at Harvard University on the Activate ED Exchange to support this work. The custom-built Activate ED Exchange technology platform connects our Alumni with each other and with other education leaders and provides them with critical resources. This strategic partnership lays the foundation to make an even bigger impact on children nationwide.

We’re well on our way to transforming the U.S. education sector by bringing in thousands of our nation’s top leaders, managers, and analysts. From 2008 to 2012, Education Pioneers received over 10,000 applications for 1,400 Fellowship opportunities. The perception of the education sector is changing, becoming a place where top graduates can launch meaningful, high-impact careers. Thank you for your support of Education Pioneers’ mission and work. As we look to the important work that lies ahead, we’re excited to partner with you and other pioneering leaders to support our bold vision to bring 10,000 talented leaders into education to transform opportunities for millions of children nationwide. Best regards,
Scott Morgan Founder & CEO

Challenge: The United States ranks 17 out of 50 developed countries in education1 and fewer than one in 10 low-income students graduate from college by age 242. As a country, we need to ensure higher quality education is accessible to every child. Solution: With many great organizations focused on improving education from inside the classroom, Education Pioneers is focused on attracting, training, and advancing change agents to fill critical leadership and management roles outside of the classroom.
Skilled management is the single most important determinant of organizational success. — Thomas J. Tierney Chairman and Co-Founder Bridgespan Group
Education Pioneers strives to address the scarcity of management talent in the education sector and pull the “invisible lever”3 of education transformation by bringing top leadership and management talent from business, law, education, and other disciplines into the field. These management positions are often invisible, but also instrumental in transforming education. Our Fellows and Alumni are becoming the educational leaders and managers who ensure the infrastructure, resources, and policies are in place to support our nation’s principals and teachers, enabling them to focus on delivering a high-quality education to all students.

For 10 years, Education Pioneers has been committed to attracting top leadership talent to the education sector and providing the training and work experience necessary for these leaders, managers, and analysts to launch successful and transformational careers in education. Starting from an initial class of nine Fellows in 2004, we’re now launching the education management careers of more than 400 Fellows a year, with a goal to grow our national network of leaders in education to 10,000 by 2023. Additionally, we have begun investing in initiatives to support and keep these leaders in education. Our Fellows come from a wide range of educational, professional, and personal backgrounds, and their shared Fellowship experiences provide them with unique perspectives on education, better equipping them to transform the sector. In 2012 we focused on:
Increasing the quantity of committed, high quality talent in the sector, and expanding our geographic reach Building Education Pioneers’ brand awareness in the private sector to increase our talent pipeline Maintaining a focus on racial diversity as we scale

Education Pioneers believes that the right talent in the right educational organizations will improve the performance of those organizations, thereby improving the education for all our nation’s students. Over the past 10 years Education Pioneers has clearly established itself as a valued partner, helping solve the most critical talent problems facing today’s education organizations. Starting with just seven Partners in 2004, we have grown our Partner network to include over 180 of the country’s leading players in the education space — and have developed the talent pool of Fellows to match their needs. In 2012 we focused on three key initiatives:

Prioritizing key Partners and identifying their leadership talent gaps and needs Building the processes and infrastructure necessary to help our Alumni transition into and within the education sector Developing the tools necessary to enhance Alumni effectiveness in high-impact roles

To ensure our Fellows are prepared for their high-impact roles within our Partner organizations, we provide professional development workshops, access to education experts who can provide critical insight into working in the sector, and opportunities to meet and bond with other Fellows and Alumni. This approach gives our Fellows a unique opportunity to learn from each other’s diverse backgrounds and provides a strong network to rely on after completing their fellowships.
I was really impressed with how Education Pioneers brought together a wide range of people from different backgrounds, all of whom I found to be super smart, committed, and interesting. I really enjoyed getting to know these people and have kept in touch with many of them — I consider them colleagues in the movement. — Shannah Varón Executive Director at Boston Collegiate Charter School (2009 Alumna)

Impact
alumni in action
As an EP Graduate School Fellow in 2008, Salomé worked at New Leaders, an organization that has trained almost 800 educators in 12 urban areas, and serves more than a quarter million students each day. There she helped develop a schedule, curriculum, selection process, and assessment tools for a leadership program to develop young teacher leaders. Salomé continues her work with education leaders, policies, and strategies to advance urban students of color.
I had no sense of the landscape of the education sector when I entered Education Pioneers. EP gave me a huge step up in terms of understanding the landscape and really opened a door for me. Coming into my current organization, without this information, I would have definitely been further behind.
Impact
As a 2012 Analyst Fellow, Cory served as a management consultant at Education Resource Strategies, advising schools on how to best allocate their resources and how that impacted student funding. As Senior Budget Analyst at the Atlantic Public Schools, Cory has helped to streamline the operations of a district with a $574.8M operating budget and comprised of 95 schools with 5,260 staff and 50,707 K-12 students, 75% of whom qualify for free or reduced lunches.
As an Education Pioneers Analyst Fellow and in my current work with Atlanta Public Schools, I have been able to use my analytical and technical skills to help streamline organizational operations to ensure that all students have access to a quality education that helps them achieve their dreams.
Impact
As an Education Pioneers Fellow and then a member of Education Pioneers’ local advisory and alumni boards, I’ve seen the organization grow significantly in the last five years alone. Education Pioneers has made a critical impact on the education outcomes of millions of students nationwide.
As Chief Growth Officer, Jon is responsible for growing Spark, taking the national nonprofit to new communities, building core infrastructure, and leading overall operations. His work helps Spark match low-income 7th and 8th graders with mentors and one-on-one workplace apprenticeships. Spark has provided more than 2,350 apprenticeships to date, and 92% of Spark apprentices graduate high school, significantly above the national average.

Looking to t he fu t ure In 2011, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation invested $7.6 million in Education Pioneers, which included funding for the Activate ED strategic marketing and recruitment initiative. Activate ED is a collaboration with The Broad Center for the Management of School Systems (TBC) and the Strategic Data Project at Harvard University (SDP) and is focused on two goals: Attracting more top
leaders, managers, and analysts into the education sector through the Activate ED strategic marketing and recruitment initiative Creating a custom-built
technology platform, the Activate ED Exchange11, which connects Alumni from Education Pioneers, TBC, and SDP, and allows them to share best practices and support each other throughout their careers

We see Education Pioneers as a leading talent pipeline for management talent in the education sector. Not only do EP Fellows bring their unique talents to existing Partner organizations, but we believe that some EP Alumni will found and lead the next generation of education reform organizations that focus on expanding education choice for parents. — Anne Stoehr Walton Family Foundation (2009 Alumna)
Education Pioneers is proud of how far we have come over the past 10 years, but there is still much to be done in the education sector. By 2014 we want to have the groundwork laid out to jumpstart our progression, preparing for tenfold growth between 2015 and 2023. What does this growth look like?
10,000-strong network of leaders working full-time in education A reputation for being the sector’s premiere provider of leadership, management, and analytic talent A transformed education sector that is the best led and managed sector in the US, as well as a primary career choice for America’s talent
In addition to significant growth, Education Pioneers has begun to focus more heavily on supporting and advancing our Alumni working in the field as they take on increasing levels of responsibility. In 2012 we began offering professional development, mentoring, and training programs, as well as an online network to facilitate communication between education leaders called the Activate ED Exchange. Our goals may be ambitious, but we know we can get there with your support.
