Our Core Beliefs
* We believe in the power of education to close the gaps that separate students from low-income backgrounds and students of underfunded school districts from other young Americans.
* We believe schools and colleges, appropriately funded and proper resources, can help virtually all students master the knowledge they need to succeed.
* We believe long-standing gaps in opportunity, achievement, and attainment have roots inside and outside of schools. And though we know these gaps are stubborn, we also know they are not inevitable.
* We believe a strong education improves the lives of young people, is vital to sustaining our democracy, and strengthens America.
