The Schlechty Center is a private, nonprofit organization based in Louisville, Kentucky.

It also brings change-makers together in collaborative networks to support them as they transform classrooms, schools, and districts, focusing on how work is designed to engage students and energize staff. The center's premise is that the quality of schoolwork influences student engagement and persistence, which in turn supports learning valued by schools, families, and the community.
