CANDIDATE PROFILE

▶️ The Relentless Instructional Driver A school leader who treats academic rigor as the non-negotiable center of every decision. They move scholars to mastery of grade-level content, use data as a daily leadership tool, and go after achievement gaps rather than manage around them.

▶️ The People Architect A developer of adults who understands a school's ceiling is set by the quality of its leadership team. They build and coach Deans, APs, and teacher leaders with genuine investment, creating cultures where feedback flows freely and people stay because they feel seen and developed.

▶️ The Culture Keeper A leader for whom school culture is never an accident. They build warm, predictable, high-expectation environments through tight systems and visible presence during the moments that matter most.

▶️ The Mission-Bound Servant Leader A leader whose commitment to the community is personal, not positional. They earn family trust through consistency and genuine care, keeping parents deeply connected to their child's experience and the school's direction.

▶️ The Grounded Owner A leader who takes full accountability without deflecting. When things get hard, they get calm. They model the growth mindset they expect from every adult and scholar on campus because their kids deserve nothing less.

CANDIDATE PROFILE

▶️ The Relentless Instructional Driver A rising school leader who treats academic rigor as the non-negotiable center of every decision. They own instructional quality across their grade levels - conducting tight observation cycles, delivering real-time coaching, and using student achievement data to diagnose gaps and drive action. They move teachers and scholars toward mastery of grade-level content because they refuse to manage around the gap.

▶️ The Emerging People Developer A coach and developer of teachers who understands that a school's ceiling is set by the adults in the building. They build genuine relationships with the 3–9 instructional staff in their charge, creating cultures where feedback flows freely and teachers grow because someone actually invested in them. They are on a clear path to developing Deans, APs, and teacher leaders - and they treat this stage of their career as the foundation for that work.

▶️ The Culture Keeper A leader for whom school culture is never an accident. They build warm, predictable, high-expectation environments through tight systems and visible presence during the moments that matter most - arrival, dismissal, transitions, lunch, and every space in between. They hold the line on PREP values for every scholar and adult, every day.

▶️ The Mission-Bound Community Builder A leader whose commitment to the community is personal, not positional. They earn family trust through consistency and genuine care, ensuring parents feel deeply connected to their child's teacher and to school leadership. They understand that family partnership is not a nice-to-have - it is core to scholar success.

▶️ The Hungry, Grounded Learner A leader who takes full accountability without deflecting and sees this role for what it is: the most important developmental investment of their career. When things get hard, they get calm. They are genuinely open to coaching, hungry for feedback, and committed to getting a little better every day - because they know their scholars and their future campus are counting on it.

LOCATION: Baton Rouge, LA (hybrid - four days in office)

SALARY RANGE: $150,000 - $175,000

CANDIDATE PROFILE

▶️ The Incubation Architect: A systems-thinker who views school development not as a checklist, but as a long-term investment in citywide excellence. They possess the technical expertise to design and oversee a high-performing charter school and leader incubation program - from fellow recruitment and coaching to new school planning and launch - and the strategic instinct to refine that model as Baton Rouge's education landscape evolves.

▶️ The Veteran School Practitioner: A leader who brings the on-the-ground credibility of a former principal to every conversation. They are equally comfortable discussing high-level portfolio strategy and the nuances of what it actually takes to open and sustain a great school - from culture-building in the first year to improving outcomes for the most underserved students.

▶️ The Talent Strategist: A developer of people who understands that a city's school system is only as strong as its pipeline of great leaders. They are capable of building grow-your-own programs, principal residencies, and coaching systems by navigating complex partnerships with higher education, local districts, and national organizations - and they measure success by the leaders they leave behind.

▶️ The Collaborative Diplomat: A high-level influencer who can build community across a diverse ecosystem of school operators, district leaders, technical providers, community stakeholders, and policy makers. They have a proven track record of moving stakeholders with disparate opinions toward a unified vision for what excellent schools in Baton Rouge can and should look like.

SALARY RANGE: $130,000

CANDIDATE PROFILE

• ▶️ The Visionary Founder: A courageous entrepreneur with a clear, bold vision for a "trajectory-changing" school that addresses the specific needs of a Colorado community.

• ▶️ The Relentless Learner: A high-capacity individual ready to immerse themselves in a rigorous, two-year training program to master the complexities of school design and operations.

• ▶️ The Community Catalyst: A leader who can build deep local roots, mobilizing families, boards, and stakeholders to support the birth of a new, high-quality educational option.

• ▶️ The Single-Site Specialist: A focused advocate committed to the "hands-on" work of launching a single, high-performing charter school from the ground up.

ROLE SUMMARY

The Legacy Fellowship is an elite, two-year incubator designed for visionary school founders committed to transforming the educational landscape of Colorado. This fellowship recognizes that creating a "trajectory-changing" school requires more than just a good idea; it requires a specialized set of skills in leadership, finance, curriculum design, and community engagement. By providing a generous $125,000 annual salary for two years, the program allows Fellows to step away from their current roles and dedicate their full energy to the rigorous work of launching a high-quality, single-site charter school.

Throughout the fellowship, participants transition from the "dreaming" phase to the "doing" phase, receiving the training and coaching necessary to navigate Colorado's unique charter landscape. The ultimate goal of the Legacy Fellowship is to ensure that when the school's doors finally open, the founder has built a sustainable, high-performing institution that provides students with an education of the highest caliber. This is a rare opportunity for transformative leaders to turn their passion for equity and excellence into a brick-and-mortar reality for the children and families of Colorado.
