Our Executive Director
William Hill is the Executive Director of Rocketship Tennessee. Will is an exceptional educator and school administrator who leads the team overseeing our Tennessee region. Will passionately believes in providing servant leadership and intentional support for school teams and educational equity for all students.
Will knows firsthand what it’s like when students face barriers to academic opportunity based on their zip code. He faced racism and classism from both individuals and the system at-large during middle and high school. It wasn’t until college that Will realized how far this set him back.
After starting his career as a classroom teacher in Baltimore City Schools – the same school district he attended as a child – Will felt drawn to school leadership to help shape the larger education systems that impact students. A mentor saw Will’s desire to disrupt the destiny of demographics that far too often define a student’s academic potential and encouraged him to open a public charter school. Will then successfully scaled a network of high-performing charter schools where his fifth grade students regularly scored in the 90th percentile or greater on reading achievement assessments. He then joined a national consulting firm overseeing transformation projects for schools and districts across the country, including literacy reform, strategic planning, human capital strategy, educator development, and school redesign. Will’s experience, both professional and personal, embodies the mission of Rocketship Public Schools Tennessee.
