“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” — Proverbs 27:17

Christian schools often face complex leadership challenges alone. Without peer collaboration and creative problem-solving, many leaders feel stuck unsure of how to grow, adapt, or boldly lead.

The Collaborative exists to break down those barriers and create a space where leaders sharpen one another, explore meaningful challenges, and return to their communities with renewed vision and practical solutions.

Our Mission

The Collaborative unites Christian Edleaders from faith-based schools to strengthen their communities and elevate the education experience to rival any alternative.
