Educated.

Every child deserves access to high-quality and equitable education.

85%

of income eligible families in NYC don’t receive childcare subsidies.

Less Than

half of all third through eighth-graders in NYC public schools score at or above reading and math grade levels.

In 2019

only 40.9% of Multilingual Learners graduated high school, compared to 80.5% of students who were not multilingual learners.

Access to a high-quality education is critical for children’s academic and social development. Yet disparities in educational outcomes exist at every level of education, from enrollment in early education programs to standardized test scores in Math and English in elementary grades, to high school graduation rates. To ensure every child has access to high-quality education we advocate for affordable early care and education, responsive K-12 schools, and year-round extra-curricular experiences outside of the classroom to prepare them for academic and career success.
