Over 850,000 low-income and students of color have not been placed in advanced level courses across U.S. high schools.1
That’s approximately 1,100 high schools worth of students!2
For various reasons, Black, Brown and underprivileged students are often times overlooked and aren’t seated in AP/IB/AICE classes.

We host regular Education Equity Regional Convenings (virtually) to inform superintendents, principals, and school and district leaders about our Action For Equity partnership program.
To date, we’ve helped nearly 800 schools 250 districts across 33 states increase equitable access to advanced level academic courses. We hope you’ll Partner with Us in the pursuit of education equity for underserved students.
