The FEE Enterprising Founder Award recognizes those bold education entrepreneurs who saw unmet needs, took personal and professional risks, and created learning environments that put students—and families—first. “We are living through a re-founding moment in American education,” said FEE President Diogo Costa, one of the award’s judges. “The recipients of this year’s Founder Award stand at the forefront of this transformation. I am thrilled to announce that Tiffany Thenor, co-founder of WonderHere, is the winner of the 2025 FEE Enterprising Founder Award, while Denise Lever, founder of Baker Creek Academy and TrailBlazED, and Giselle McClymont, founder of Tree Stars Learning, are the runners-up. Congratulations to the 2025 FEE Enterprising Founder Award winners!
