    Educators

    New America’s PreK-12 Educators Initiative leads research, policy analysis, and direct field-building initiatives to guide education leaders across the country in finding solutions that simultaneously address educator workforce quantity and quality issues—from recruitment and preparation, to ongoing professional learning and meaningful career advancement.

    We seek to strengthen educator workforce policies and practices to help ensure that all students have access to highly skilled educators who reflect the communities they serve and who can engage all students in rigorous instruction.

    Education Funding Equity

    Education Funding Equity

    All children need and deserve well-resourced schools, but not all children are in school districts that have the funding required to help them succeed. While this can be due to inadequate or unfair state or federal funding, often, budget disparities arise from differences in school districts’ local revenue, which tend to reflect the wealth inequality of segregated neighborhoods.

    The Education Funding Equity Initiative analyzes and communicates the impact of such school funding policies, pointing the way toward better approaches. We conduct quantitative, qualitative, and geospatial analysis; craft policy recommendations; and offer counsel to policymakers and advocates working on school funding issues.
