“Education can’t save us, we have to save education.”

Collaborators
We believe that meaningful collaboration can lead to important changes and shifts in society. We partner with a number of like minded organizations to offer our support, expertise and resources in the tools of our Anti-Bias Education Framework, helping to create spaces that cultivate anti-racist education practice, inclusive classroom design, and ultimately more just and equitable communities of belonging. We grow and learn in these partnerships and are grateful to those that we walk along this path with.
The National Center for Special Education in Charter Schools (“the Center”) is a young national nonprofit organization committed to ensuring that students with disabilities can access and thrive in charter schools. The Center provides research, policy analysis, coalition building, and technical assistance to a variety of stakeholders across the nation. We work hard, we have a good time, and we care about doing what is best for kids. We value a positive, encouraging, and mission-driven work environment and embrace a deep commitment to diversity, equity, accessibility, and inclusion, both internally and externally. While keeping the students we serve at the center of our work, we recognize that we do better and stronger work when we are a diverse coalition of leaders. Therefore, we seek to build strong and inclusive communities, welcome diverse backgrounds, and value multiple perspectives
Common Ground / LAUSD
We work to co-create Learning Ecosystems across a very wide range of schools. This is because, while CGC has all the elements of a connected, coherent curriculum, it is far more than that. When a school join us, they don’t adopt a programme, they join a conversation. In fact, we see CGC as “programme agnostic”. This enables us to work successfully schools that have adopted programmes in place, such as IB World Schools, as well as those that want to re-model their current curriculum, or “start from scratch”.
Diverse Charter Schools Coalition
Our mission is to catalyze and support the creation and expansion of high-quality diverse public charter schools through strategic research, advocacy, membership activities, and outreach.
MƒA was founded in 2004 as an organization committed to teachers. We’ve created four-year fellowships for accomplished public school mathematics and science teachers who make a lasting impact in their schools, their communities, and the profession at large. We improve teacher retention nationally by building and supporting communities of outstanding STEM teachers. Our vision is simple: An America that values, trusts and respects its mathematics and science teachers.
The Century Foundation is a progressive, nonpartisan think tank that seeks to foster opportunity, reduce inequality, and promote security at home and abroad.
For over a decade, the New York City Charter School Center has served as the leading expert and proponent of New York City’s charter school movement.

The National Coalition on School Diversity (NCSD) is national network supporting a diverse group of constituents to advocate for and create experiences, practices, models, and policies that promote school diversity/integration and reduce racial and economic isolation in K-12 education. The work is guided by a vision of an inclusive, multiracial society that maintains itself through just social structures. The words of Justice Thurgood Marshall, “Unless our children begin to learn together, there is little hope that our people will ever begin to live together,” are a popular mantra amongst coalition members.
