Each week, we lift up a Malott Educator Fellow who is making a meaningful difference for students.

This week, we’re proud to spotlight Dr. Ernest Williams, principal at Edward K. Ellington Elementary School and a member of our 2025-26 Malott Educator Fellowship cohort.

The Chicago Board of Education approved contracts for 16 school leaders in June, with 10 principals having their contracts renewed by their Local School Councils and six earning their first principal contracts
