Nicholas Elmes has spent his life learning what does and does not work in education.
Growing up in a family of educators in rural Virginia, Nicholas quickly learned the value a quality education could bring to economically disadvantaged populations.
In his previous career, Nicholas spent 15 years as a newspaper editor covering the intricacies of education policy in Virginia and North Carolina. Over the years, he saw how innovative practices could transform student success and opportunities in public school systems and how private and charter schools could provide new education choices for parents and students seeking programs better suited for their own children’s needs.
