Built from the classroom. Proven in the field.
Mindscape is led by Antonio Pacifico, who has spent significant time in education and achieved results at all levels from his time as a teacher to two successful turnarounds while principal. Across his career, Antonio has worked in New Orleans, Denver, and Saint Louis focused on educational delivery and outcomes from every level. Most recently, he has successfully supported the launch of three new schools in Saint Louis adding over 600 new high quality seats.

He went into classrooms, model taught, model coached and gave difficult but important feedback all within his first six hours with us. He has been clear from the beginning that his only goal is that students learn how to read — and that clarity has driven everything.
We increased the percentage of students at or above grade level from 12% to 41% in reading and from 2% to 19% in math. It is an understatement to say that we could not have done this without the support of Antonio Pacifico.
Antonio lives three hours away and yet has yet to miss an in-person walkthrough. He reviews footage of our literacy coach's sessions and provides weekly feedback. This level of involvement has built rapid trust and relevance with our team.
