Schott Foundation For Public Education

Description

• Schott Foundation's mission is to develop and strengthen a broad-based and representative movement to achieve fully resourced, quality PreK-12 public education. At the Schott Foundation, we believe that quality public education is a mainstay of our democracy. It provides not only a route out of poverty, but also the possibility to transform young lives. This conviction drives Schotts grantmaking strategy, which seeks to create healthy living and learning communities and ensure fairness, opportunity and access to high quality public schools for all children. Schott supports an Opportunity to Learn frame for understanding education policy. This framework recognizes that to truly close achievement gaps, our nation must address underlying opportunity gaps the deep disparities that exist in access to quality educational resources, particularly for low-income students and students of color. Schotts core belief is that well-resourced grassroots campaigns can lead to systemic change in the disparities poor children and children of color face in our nations schools. In helping to build these campaigns into a movement, Schott recognizes its pivotal role as both funder and advocate. Our operational strategy extends beyond simple grantmaking to offer our grantees and allied organizations additional supports in network building, policy analysis and communications. It is this combination of financial and operational supports that produces well-resourced campaigns for policy reform. Schotts grantees wage these campaigns at the city, state and federal levels, often focusing on a particular issue within the broader landscape of education reform.
