Our inaugural awards program will recognize the companies, leaders, authors, and educators whose tremendous efforts are helping schools achieve equity everywhere.
Each and every day, the educators in our schools―teachers, support staff, school administrators, and district leaders―along with their trusted product and service providers take on the challenge of ensuring equity and access for every student, everywhere. This is a critical effort that is foundational to the mission of the education system, and when equity initiatives are successful, there is an incalculable positive effect on potential future outcomes for our learners.
To continue our efforts to keep the K-12 conversation centered on equity and access as a non-negotiable priority, we are proud to launch the inaugural Excellence in Equity Awards, a program designed to acknowledge the invaluable contributions of both educators and industry to improving opportunity and outcomes for students. Award submissions will open in April. Enter your email below to receive a notification.
