During his 30-year career as an educator and social entrepreneur, Knowles has worked to improve teacher preparation and training, transform urban school systems, and expand opportunity for students in Chicago, Boston, and New York City. His professional career has been marked by his commitment to improving education systems to redress long-standing educational, racial, and economic injustice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe health of our education system is essential for a robust, equitable economy and informed citizenry,\u201d says Knowles. \u201cI look forward to working in close partnership with Carnegie\u2019s extraordinary trustees, staff, and senior fellows to advance the quality of K\u201312 and higher education as part of our larger efforts to achieve educational, racial, and economic justice for all.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowles, a Distinguished Fellow at the University of Chicago, has served as a Carnegie Foundation trustee since 2018. He has been engaged deeply with questions of strategy, organizational development, and finance. Knowles comes to the Carnegie presidency as the founder and managing partner of the Academy Group, which prepares young people from the nation\u2019s most resilient communities for success in school, career, and life. Previously, he founded and served as the Pritzker Director of the University of Chicago Urban Labs, served as John Dewey Clinical Professor of Education at the University of Chicago, and established and directed the University\u2019s Urban Education Institute. He was the Deputy Superintendent of the Boston Public Schools, a school leader in Bedford-Stuyvesant, founding director of Teach for America in New York, and a teacher of African history in Botswana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTim is the embodiment of our core values,\u201d says Anthony S. Bryk, Ed.D., who served as Carnegie\u2019s president during 2008\u201320. \u201cHe brings to the role of president a sophistication in continuous improvement, a comprehensive understanding of the educational space from the classroom to the legislature, and a profound sense of empathy for the students our education system leaves behind year after year.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI am&nbsp;very&nbsp;much looking forward to building on the remarkable momentum of the last decade,\u201d says Knowles, \u201cand working with my new colleagues in the pursuit of just and joyful educational opportunity for young people across our nation and the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn more about Tim Knowles in a&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carnegiefoundation.org\/about-us\/qa-with-carnegie-president-timothy-knowles\/\">brief Q&amp;A<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Carnegie<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching is committed to solving longstanding inequities in educational outcomes.
