Grants to this Grantee
for general operating support
The All4Ed is a national nonprofit that seeks to eliminate the predictive power of economic disadvantage by ensuring that all students graduate from high school prepared for college and life. The group supports federal and state policy and programmatic efforts that eradicate systemic biases and promote opportunities for historically underserved students. All4Ed works on programs that builds awareness, understanding, and support for eliminating disparities in K-12 education. This grant supports the general operations of All4Ed. (Strategy: K-12 Teaching and Learning)
for support of staff development to advance educational equity
The Alliance for Excellent Education encourages policies supporting high school reform and increased student achievement and attainment, particularly through an emphasis on deeper learning, digital learning, and the Common Core State Standards. This organizational effectiveness grant supports the Alliance’s internal work to deepen their staff’s individual and collective awareness, knowledge, skill, and capacity to develop and execute strategies to advance educational equity. While premised on improving outcomes for all students, the deeper learning movement will benefit from a more explicit, actionable focus on equity issues among its leading advocates and policy influencers.
for the Federal and State Policy Cluster collaboration
The Alliance for Excellent Education encourages policies supporting high school reform and increased student achievement and attainment, particularly through an emphasis on deeper learning, digital learning, and the Common Core State Standards. On behalf of the "cluster" of Hewlett Foundation grantees working on policy reform, the Alliance will allocate organizational effectiveness funds to support increased coordination and collaboration among those organizations conducting research, advocacy, and outreach activities. Support for mutual planning and activities will help "cluster" participants share plans and metrics and act in greater unison for deeper learning reform at the state and federal levels.
