The Surge Institute


About Us

The Surge Institute was founded in 2014, in response to a dearth of leadership of color at the decision-­making tables within education reform. Surge provides leadership development resources to institutions and individuals to create a pipeline of diverse leaders in education.   The Surge Fellowship, the Institute’s signature program, is designed to identify and groom emerging talent in education, and provide them with leadership development as well as access to networks and visibility, empowering them to bring new ideas, perspectives, and solutions that change the landscape of education.
