Our Schools Coalition
A diverse group of over 30 Seattle-based organizations and community leaders came together in March 2010 to form the Our Schools Coalition. Our Schools Coalition united to express the community’s voice in teacher contract negotiations, to advocate for our children, and to support teachers as professionals.

These charter schools will serve at-risk students and those who attend persistently low-performing schools. The coalition is led by Democrats for Education Reform, League of Education Voters, Partnership for Learning and Stand for Children.

The Broad Foundation was founded by the Broad family in the 1960s as a way to support their charitable interests and causes. But with their financial success from the sale of SunAmerica, the Broads focused their charitable giving in a new style of investing that was more akin to their business acumen: venture philanthropy. Today, The Broad Foundations, which include The Eli and Edythe Broad Foundation and The Broad Art Foundation, have assets of $2.1 billion. Their mission is to advance entrepreneurship for the public good in education, science and the arts.

Our goal is to provide these prospective “stewards for education” with the knowledge and support to be advocates for continued, sustained progress in our schools.

Inspired by their passion for children and by a shared desire to improve the lives of children living in urban poverty, Michael and Susan Dell established their Austin, Texas-based foundation in 1999. To date, the foundation has committed more than $1 billion to assist nonprofit organizations working in major urban communities in the United States, South Africa and India.

The New England Secondary School Consortium (NESSC) is a regional partnership that promotes forward-thinking innovations in the design and delivery of secondary education across New England. The five partner states—Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont—work together to close persistent achievement gaps and promote greater educational equity and opportunity for all students.
New Schools for New Orleans and its coalition partners envision New Orleans transforming from a “C” school system to an “A” system—one that prepares all students for college and career—with effective personalized learning as a key driver. New Orleans will become a national proof point for what is possible when innovative school models operate within a system built on autonomy, accountability, and choice. The structure of the New Orleans coalition, which seeks to scale personalized learning, reflects these principles and decentralized environment. The coalition includes three non-profits: New Schools for New Orleans (NSNO), Educate Now!, and 4.0 Schools (4.0), with the Orleans Parish School Board (OPSB) and the Louisiana Recovery School District (RSD).
The Rogers Family Foundation (RFF) seeks to catalyze organizations and systems to achieve and excel at the highest level in positively transforming the educational experience and opportunities for Oakland’s most disadvantaged students. Investing both staffing and funding resources, the Foundation envisions a future in which all Oakland students will graduate college-, career-, and community-ready. RFF is committed to ensuring that all students in Oakland have the opportunity to attend a high-quality school. Given the crucial importance of early school readiness, RFF has also set the goal that, by 2020, 85% of students will read at grade level by the end of third grade. In addition, RFF believes that achievement gaps by socioeconomic status must be eliminated for the city’s educational system to truly achieve transformative change.
The Colorado Education Initiative and its coalition partners imagine a future where education is designed to: help students develop the academic, professional, entrepreneurial, personal, and civic competencies that a modern society and economy demand; support educators in creating learning environments designed to maximize these outcomes for students; and promote systems that support and incentivize educators in this effort.
At Overdeck Family Foundation, our mission is helping all kids achieve their greatest academic potential.

AASA, The School Superintendents Association, founded in 1865, is the professional organization for more than 13,000 educational leaders in the United States and throughout the world. AASA’s mission is to support and develop effective school system leaders who are dedicated to the highest quality public education for all children. For more information, visit www.aasa.org.
Through an emerging partnership, AASA members will have increased access to CEL training opportunities around developing instructional leadership.
BILL & MELINDA GATES FOUNDATION
With the support of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, CEL is working across the country with statewide consortia, school districts and charter management organizations to improve effective teaching and dramatically increase student learning. The “Leading for Effective Teaching” project highlights how school districts are evolving the role of principals as instructional leaders — and how central offices are adapting to better support principals in these efforts. The “Leadership for Higher Academic Standards” project is building the skills of district and school leaders in leading the implementation of Common Core State Standards.
BloomBoard empowers educator growth through an easy-to-use online platform for professional development. BloomBoard’s innovative marketplace delivers CEL’s web-based training offerings as part of a comprehensive, personalized library of administrator and educators resources.
Learning Forward is a nonprofit, international membership association of learning educators committed to one vision in K–12 education: Excellent teaching and learning every day. CEL is a member of Learning Forward’s Redesign PD Partnership, a diverse group of leading thinkers working to identify new solutions to challenges within the current professional learning system and to inspire new thinking about how to create demand for—and implement—redesigned systems of support that can guarantee that all educators have access to effective professional learning. Learn more.
LOGAN CENTER FOR EDUCATION AT THE INSTITUTE FOR SYSTEMS BIOLOGY
Through the Logan Center for Education, the Institute for Systems Biology promotes Next Generation Science, Engineering & Mathematics and addresses ways to make quality STEM education available for all. CEL experts serve as active thought partners in developing resources and experiences designed to support principals as instructional leaders for science. Learn more about Principles of Science for Principals (P4P).
MATHEMATICA POLICY RESEARCH / AMERICAN INSTITUTES FOR RESEARCH / PEMBERTON RESEARCH / SOCIAL POLICY RESEARCH ASSOCIATES
Mathematica Policy Research, along with its partners American Institutes for Research, Pemberton Research, and Social Policy Research Associates, is conducting a rigorous, multi-year, large-scale evaluation of the effectiveness of principal professional development for the U.S. Department of Education’s Institute of Education Sciences. CEL is playing a central role in the study as the sole provider of training and coaching interventions aimed at honing principals’ skills. Learn more.
MICHIGAN ASSOCIATION OF SECONDARY SCHOOL PRINCIPALS
Through a partnership with the Michigan Association of Secondary School Principals, CEL has jointly developed Pivot with 5D+, an electronic teacher observation and evaluation tool based on CEL’s 5 Dimensions of Teaching and Learning instructional framework and the 5D+ Teacher Evaluation Rubric.
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF SECONDARY SCHOOL PRINCIPALS
NASSP is the leading organization of middle level and high school principals and schools leaders. Through a collaboration with CEL, NASSP members have access to CEL training programs that enable school leaders to better support teachers in the delivery of high-quality instruction.
SAN DIEGO COUNTY OFFICE OF EDUCATION
The San Diego County Office of Education provides transformational professional learning opportunities for 42 Southern California school districts serving over 500,000 students. CEL’s partnership with San Diego COE marries the Center’s expertise with a high-performing local organization able to offer California school districts immediate practice, application and feedback.
The nonprofit Teaching Channel has reinvented the use of video content in professional learning with the launch of Teaching Channel Teams.
For school systems supported by CEL, Teaching Channel Teams presents another avenue for delivering CEL’s job-embedded, individualized coaching and professional development.
