Overview
The mission of Envision Education’s four schools is to transform the lives of students — especially those who will be the first in their family to attend college — by preparing them for success in college and in life, through the integration of arts and technology into core subjects. Renewed support will enable Envision Learning Partners, the assessment arm of Envision Education, to expand and deepen its work via the Bay Area Performance Assessment Network. This project aims to increase educator and school leadership capacity for implementation of arts-integrated performance assessment, bringing it to a growing number of schools and counties in the region as a key educational strategy.

for the Deeper Learning Leadership Forum
Envision Education hosts the Deeper Learning Leadership Forum, in addition to working with students, schools, and districts to improve student outcomes through the use of its portfolio defense approach. The Leadership Forum is a cohort-based leadership experience that aims to develop, strengthen, and support a group of educational leaders to work at the intersection of equity and design thinking. The grant enables Envision to support education leaders who are knowledgeable of deeper learning and equity issues and positioned to implement necessary changes inside their systems.
