EdAllies uses three strategies to advance an equitable education for students across Minnesota, with a focus on students who have been historically underserved. 1. Research and analysis: EdAllies conducts research to better understand the opportunities and barriers facing Minnesota students and schools, including qualitative research on promising practices in that move the needle for student outcomes, analysis of Minnesota?s education landscape, and presentation of data to make it more accessible and inform policy decisions. 2. Outreach and engagement: EdAllies works to change the narrative about what's possible for Minnesota students, elevating the voices and perspectives of students, educators, and families most impacted by Minnesota?s education inequities. 3. Policy Change: EdAllies works with students, families, educators, and community leaders to design, advocate for, and implement equitable policies that center on the needs of students. EdAllies' accomplishments for the year include advocating for a strong, student-centered framework for teacher preparation in the state, elevating the stories of students impacted by the pandemic, working in coalition to advance access universal access to school meals and reduce school discipline disparities, advancing access to rigorous academics, especially in science, math, and literacy, defending welcoming and culturally-relevant school climates, and educating and engaging the community to lead in making student-centered changes to Minnesota's education system through civic engagement and social advocacy.
