Professional Educational Consultants
Brief
Overview
From thought leadership to data system integration to new school start up and everything in between. Alt ed inc has over 40 years of combined educational experience. Specializing in disrupting the status quo of traditional educational systems with truly student-centered design, alt ed inc can help bring your big (or small) idea to reality.
As founders and current leaders of an innovative public alternative high school, we understand how schools and systems operate and know all-too-well the obstacles which can make innovation seem impossible. But we also know that those obstacles can be overcome and that by keeping students at the center, change is possible.
