Insight-to-Impact Partnership
The Insight-to-Impact Partnership
What is the Insight-to-Impact Partnership?
The Insight-to-Impact Partnership is a fee-for-service initiative led by the Maricopa County School Superintendent’s Office. This unique opportunity will build a cross-district community that will challenge historical approaches to teaching and learning; boldly improving learning conditions for students while stabilizing the educator workforce. Participating districts will receive highly customized support grounded in research, proven in practice, and aligned to local context.

Membership is limited to five districts for the 2026–27 school year (or earlier!), and opportunities are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Interested districts are encouraged to reach out early to secure their spot.
In addition, we are currently offering on-demand services to LEAs during the 2025-26 school year. We have 14 different opportunity areas (see the Solution Sculpting Categories below).
