Jade Strategies partners with school and district leaders to design student-centered systems that strengthen culture, wellness, and career-connected learning—maximizing time and resources schools already have.
All engagements are:
Co-designed with students and staff
Grounded in human-centered design
Built to work within real-world school constraints
Focused on hope, belonging, relevance, and future readiness
Our work is designed for K-12 superintendents, principals, secondary directors, ESCs, and district leadership teams who know their students need more connection, purpose, and relevance—but don’t have the capacity to build these systems alone.
Re-energize adults to build the experiences students need now.
Professional learning that starts with inspiration and leads to practical, implementable change—grounded in today’s realities of schools and the future students are entering.
Keynotes, workshops, and leadership coaching
Topics include student agency, culture, wellness, innovation, AI, and workforce readiness
Practice-forward and hopeful, not just theory-heavy
