Compensation

Compensation Philosophy

We believe in providing the best compensation package for our staff to ensure fair, equitable pay.

Salaries are benchmarked using current market data and salary bands are created to demonstrate the growth potential within the band. Typically, offers are made at the starting place of the salary band. The Hiring Manager partners with the Talent Team to ensure offers are appropriate, competitive and maintain internal equity.

Our Values

Claim Excellence

Mediocrity, eat our dust.

Embrace Curiosity

We believe growth comes from asking the right questions, not from having all the answers.

Say “Thank You” Seven Times

Our founder never asked for more support until she said thank you seven times. Gratitude is part of everything we do.

Laugh and Take Care

The work we do is rigorous and sometimes difficult; we look for positive ways to blow off steam and spend time outside of work doing things that fuel us.

Many Voices, One Mission

We believe that diverse perspectives and backgrounds best position us to work together for our common cause: to serve our students to our highest capacity.

Dare to Lead

If not me, then who? We believe in showing up as change-makers, leading from every seat.

Be Real

To promote our professional growth and connection to one another, we’re committed to cultivating the courage it takes to give and receive thoughtful feedback.

Connect and Collaborate

We know a rising tide lifts all boats – so we collaborate to create what is best for the whole.
