I worked with Dr. Eskridge, affectionately known as Dr. E, for more than seven years when he served in the position of Executive Director for Advance Innovative Education, and I was in the role of Master Leadership Coach. During Dr E’s tenure as executive director, he exemplified the highest character traits and qualities of an educational leader. He is very knowledgeable and understands the educational problems and issues faced by school leaders, teachers and students. Dr. Eskridge possesses all the attributes of professionalism.

Dr. Eskridge is the consummate professional. He has a vision that he can articulate at a micro-level and engage with all stakeholders-parents, community members, teachers, principals, and especially students. Simultaneously, he can share the big picture of education that often people grapple to understand. He is without doubt a distinguished educational leader.

It is with great pleasure to write this professional reference for Dr. Michael Eskridge. He is a visionary and dynamic instructional leader, manager and administrator who can create effective organizational structures and educational environments. He brings sound judgment, pride, a wealth of experience, and professionalism to his work environment, has excellent rapport with his staff, students, parents and/or customers, and has a very collegial relationship with all those he works with.

Dr. Eskridge has been instrumental in helping guide young men and fathers such as myself.  His insight and leadership have helped me become not only a better man but a better father.  With him leading our Fatherhood program we as men have been able to open up and share our experiences like never before.  As well as leading our academic enrichment program, our children have excelled in school and we know we always have someone our children can turn too in times of need or struggle academically, who will be patient with them.  I could not be more proud to be working with Dr Michael Eskridge!
