Equity in School-based Continuous Improvement

Description:

City Year and Johns Hopkins University were one of the first grantees of Gates Foundation’s Network for School Improvement initiative. With a focus on high-poverty urban schools, it was essential to center around equity -- ensuring the school-based improvement model would support all students, their families, and teachers. Learn about City Year’s continuous improvement approach and the new CLEAR Equity Framework which is influencing the Foundation and other improvement network grantees.
