Higher Ground Education

At Higher Ground Education (HGE), our purpose is to help children worldwide achieve elevation. We’re dedicated to greatly expanding the reach and impact of the Montessori movement—to creating systems, services, and resources that empower Montessori educators everywhere.\n\nHGE is an education management company specializing in Montessori school operations. HGE's mission is to mainstream Montessori education, by developing a scalable, full-stack platform for Montessori school programming and operations, and deploying it to build out a large international school network.\n\nHGE both directly owns schools, and manage schools on behalf of investors, philanthropists, and other parties. Rapid growth is fueled by school acquisition/rollup opportunities in Montessori and early education. This growth is financed by a stratified capital structure that attracts off-balance-sheet funds from EB-5s, REITs, school asset company investors, and more. HGE has raised approximately $105 million from growth equity investors since its founding. Most recently, we completed a $32 million Series D raise in April 2021 at a valuation of $250 million.\n\nThe HGE team consists of an aligned, idealistic group of seasoned educators, business experts, and school operators uniquely suited to develop and implement the myriad systems of scale necessary to power a large network of high-quality, high-fidelity Montessori schools.\n\n
