About Go Apex Edu
Apex Education Consulting LLC was founded with a simple but powerful vision: to help schools and districts build systems where every educator feels supported and every student has access to meaningful learning.
Drawing on decades of experience in district leadership, accreditation, and instructional coaching, founder Donna Ash established Apex Education Consulting to partner with—not simply for—school leaders and teachers. We believe that sustainable improvement begins with relationships, shared goals, and a deep commitment to continuous learning.
At Apex, we don’t deliver “one-size-fits-all” solutions. Instead, we collaborate with districts to strengthen instructional leadership, align curriculum, and design multi-tiered systems of support that truly work for their communities.
Our purpose is to help educators translate research into real classroom impact, ensuring that every student’s success is supported by strong systems and inspired teaching.
Together, we’re taking learning to new levels..
