Education Elements Hires Dr. Scott D. Hayes to Lead New Sales Push for School Districts

A new sales leader joins Education Elements and the move aims to widen district reach

Education Elements announced that Dr. Scott D. Hayes has joined the company as Partner, New Sales. The appointment, unveiled in the company’s announcement today, puts Hayes in charge of building fresh partnerships with school districts and expanding the reach of Education Elements’ services across K–12 systems. The company framed the hire as a concrete step to sharpen its outreach and to help more districts take on personalized and blended learning programs.

Decades in K–12 leadership and a focus on district partnerships

According to the announcement, Dr. Hayes brings decades of experience in K–12 education. His background centers on working directly with school systems, building relationships with district leaders, and overseeing teams that support classroom implementation. The role calls for combining deep knowledge of how districts operate with the practical skills needed to turn district interest into lasting programs.

Hayes is presented as someone who has led cross-functional teams, negotiated complex contracts with public institutions, and helped translate district goals into operational plans. That mix — a grasp of both school-level priorities and the nuts-and-bolts of delivering services at scale — is exactly what Education Elements says it wanted for a role focused on winning and stewarding new district clients.

Education Elements’ work and how this hire fits the company’s model

Education Elements is a K–12 education services firm that helps districts and schools design and run personalized and blended learning programs, adopt instructional technology, and reshape systems for better student outcomes. Its customers are primarily school districts, charter networks and state or local education agencies that need help planning, training staff, and rolling out digital learning strategies.

Bringing in a senior sales partner signals a push to accelerate adoption among districts that are exploring digital and personalized learning but need hands-on support to make the shift. The hire is positioned as part of a broader growth strategy: moving beyond pilot projects to more sustained, district-wide engagements.

What districts, partners and program delivery can expect

For district leaders and partners, the practical effect should be more active outreach and a clearer pathway from initial conversations to full program rollout. Education Elements is likely to lean on Hayes to streamline how it presents offerings to districts, tailor proposals to local needs, and scale implementation teams to meet demand.

Operationally, districts may see faster response times during procurement and onboarding, and more packaged services aimed at accelerating classroom adoption. For partners such as software vendors or teacher training organizations that work with Education Elements, the hire could mean more coordinated joint offerings and an emphasis on partnerships that lead to district-wide contracts.

Official words from the announcement and next steps

The announcement quoted company leadership saying they were pleased to add Hayes’ experience to their team. “We’re excited to welcome Dr. Scott D. Hayes,” the statement read, noting his track record in K–12 and his ability to build strong district relationships.

Dr. Hayes was also quoted expressing enthusiasm for the new role and for helping districts scale personalized learning. The company said it will introduce Hayes to district partners in the coming weeks as part of a series of conversations and regional outreach.
