About us
Our Vision All young people learn in ways that enable them to thrive in and transform the world. Our Mission Transcend supports communities to create and spread extraordinary, equitable learning environments. What We Believe The world is changing, as are the needs of learners. It’s more complex, more interconnected, more technological. To thrive, our children need more than academic skills – they need leadership, self‐awareness, creativity, empathy, collaboration, entrepreneurship, critical consciousness, and more. All children deserve this opportunity. The time is now for innovation. The traditional design of K‐12 public schools has served important purposes over time. However, the world’s changing conditions and students’ evolving needs call for wholly new conceptions of what we call “school.” Our Role Transcend, founded by Jeff Wetzler and Aylon Samouha, plays a key partnership role to fuel and grow R&D capacity. Given day‐to‐day demands of school, visionary educators are often held back in the innovation they can pursue. We believe they will make the best progress when afforded the time, capacity, and support to not only imagine and design but also build, prototype, assess, iterate upon, codify, and ultimately replicate breakthrough new models. Through partnering with school operators, Transcend aims to play a vital role in affording visionary educators – and the sector more broadly – the deep R&D capacity needed to accelerate breakthroughs in the creation and spread of new “school” models. Our Approach We enlist school operator partners (district, charter, and other) who have great potential for breakthrough innovation. We assemble world‐class R&D talent (both individuals and organizations), with expertise in a range of areas. We partner with school operators to provide the external R&D capacity that is often much needed, while also helping to grow, unleash, and orchestrate the capacity that already exists within leadership, staff, students, and community.

Human Potential & Learning Expert | Keynote & TEDx Speaker | Author of ASK & Co-Author of Extraordinary Learning for All | Former Chief Learning Officer at Teach for America
If you know me, you know that my greatest passion is LEARNING. I'm obsessed with it's power for everyone: myself, others, children, teams, and communities. So it was the privilege of a lifetime to co-author EXTRAORDINARY LEARNING FOR ALL together with my very dear Transcend colleagues and friends, Aylon Samouha and Jenee Henry Wood. The book chronicles insights, stories, and practical tools from our first decade and all that we have learned from visionary leaders and communities who are transforming education so every learner can thrive.

We are excited at the release of “Learner-Centered in Focus,” a new report from Education Reimagined by Khara Schonfeld-Karan, which was developed using our Leaps Student Voice Survey as a core part of the findings. Through three dimensions of insight—youth experiences, leader and learner strategies, and national comparisons—this report reflects the transformative potential of learner-centered education. Through the implementation of Transcend’s Leaps survey at Education Reimagined partners across the country, learner responses underscore the power of intentional learner-centered education mindsets, practices, and strategies. The findings also unpack specific strategies shared by site leaders that foster learner agency and community support. Check out the report to dive into the insights from these sites working to create meaningful learner-centered experiences for young people. https://lnkd.in/e748yNua
