The more we can connect to each other, bring our best ideas to the table, and really listen to understand how schools want to be supported, the better chance students will have at reaching their full potential. ??
At the recent Arizona Business and Education Coalition gathering, I witnessed the exact moment 60 organizations realized we already have all the pieces—we just need to connect them. You could literally feel the energy shift in the room when Dr. Maurice Spinnett took the stage. His personal story hit home for all of us - how his determined single mother sought support for him, and how key leaders stepped up at critical moments to provide life-changing opportunities. His journey resonated with all of us. The question we're now facing isn't about lack of resources. We have willing schools and industry leaders, technology platforms for information access, and nonprofits offering excellent programming. What we're missing is a dense, interconnected network - an ecosystem that links all these elements together through relationships built on trust. This means we need to truly understand what each organization brings to the table. It requires humility and active listening among leaders, recognizing that only through collaboration can we achieve what we're all passionate about. I left feeling inspired by our shared vision for Arizona's students, hopeful because of the humble leaders in that room willing to listen and learn, and yes - a bit nervous too. Building trust and understanding isn't easy. But this challenging, beautiful work of connecting people and creating bridges is exactly why I get up every morning - to help build a more connected world that our kids will inherit and care for.

"I might not be able to clean up the whole world, but I can clean up my little corner of it and make it more just and humane in the service of children." - ROGER FREEMAN, ED.D., Littleton Elementary School District #65 True leadership isn't just about vision—it's about creating a village of support around our students. This is exactly why Dr. Freeman won the 2024 Champions of Education Changemaker Award! His legacy lives on in the community partnerships he built that have given students real-world experiences and access to resources and technology to pursue their dreams! Who's your education champion? We're looking for changemakers to celebrate in 2025 who are making Arizona a better place.
