It's way too late to be working and probably too early for me to be sharing bc successfully rebranding takes a whole lot of strategy, time, energy, and TIME, but I'm so jazzed about this so I'm sharing NOW. For four years, Toni and I have operated School Leadership for Social Justice. We had a relentless focus on equity and justice in K-12 schools and have traveled all over the country inspiring and educating teachers, school administrators, and district leaders, and, for a couple of business novices, we've seen unbelievable success. But for the last two of those four years, we've gotten really clear on our message, our method, our intended impact, and our audience, and our name didn't sufficiently capture the depth nor breadth of our work nor what we fundamentally believe about how to achieve equitable outcomes for kids. So, we've been praying and thinking and praying some more about who we are and what we do and how to reflect that in our organization's name.

Then...BOOM!

One day as I was working on a proposal for one of our schools, it hit me! School Excellence Solutions. We are in passionate pursuit of equitable outcomes and we believe that is achieved through excellence! Effective, excellent leadership and exemplary instruction are the keys to equitable outcomes. We often hear the phrase 'excellence and equity,' but excellence IS equity! And when excellence is the standard, equity will be the outcome!

More to come (like cleaning up the website and all of our collateral and renaming all of our social media pages),
but for now...

Goodbye, SLSJ.
