Company History
Jordan and Teddy were distressed by the lack of solutions for educators, and saw a clear need for innovation focused on English learners. They envisioned a solution that would help educators and school districts address their unique challenges, and a company that would serve the EL community with passion and enthusiasm equal to that of the dedicated educators that have devoted their careers to the work with English learners. That's when they met Carrie Hill. Carrie was an EL educator in North Carolina who had become frustrated by an overwhelming administrative burden that took so much time away from preparation, intervention with students, and collaboration with her colleagues. Like all great entrepreneurs, she decided to do something about it. Carrie created a simple database to help organize, track and share EL information in an effort to meet the needs of teachers. Jordan and Teddy met Carrie and immediately saw the value in the product that she created. Carrie joined the team and became one of many passionate professionals to bring their real-life experience to work at Ellevation.
