Overview
Mission
We primarily support educators and districts by providing professional development. We offer free workshops and training to educators across the country. When possible, we partner with districts to provide services directly to their teachers and staff. We work to provide resources on best practices and current research to improve their school achievement scores. We offer diversity equity and inclusion training for districts to increase their capacity to identify, recruit, employ, and retain educators of color and from disadvantaged backgrounds. We provide workshops and leadership development seminars for students who are seeking to make the transition from secondary education to post secondary education or career options. This includes connecting with other educators to be able to support these efforts.

Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
