We're in the business of Educators.We believe in systems that promote equitable outcomes and excellence in education.
Educators of color need a shared, elevated voice and a stronger presence to help craft these types of strong accountability systems that we know ultimately lead to improved outcomes for students of diverse backgrounds. To make this happen, we engage and convene educators of color with opportunities to fellowship, develop layers of mentorship, and explore leadership opportunities. |
