The Reach Institute for School Leadership (Reach) is a non-profit graduate school of education, founded in 2004 with credential programs beginning in 2007. Reach was designed to meet the needs of educators learning complex skills while on-the-job and in challenging environments. Reach Institute for School Leadership will become Reach University, an institution of higher education, in Fall 2020 and expand its post-secondary education and training program offerings.
The BA in Global Education, launched in Fall 2020, is a program of study designed to support the future educator. The degree course of study blends foundational coursework in child and adolescent development with an array of general education courses focused on math, science, humanities, and English. Courses build upon each other and create a scaffolded learning experience that blends theory and practice. As a “developmental” undergraduate program, we believe all students have the ability to become high-impact educators and successful students with the appropriate support and focus on skill and competency building.
