We’re excited to host the 3rd Annual Education Policy Summit on Friday, September 26, 2025, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM at the Mexican Heritage Plaza.
 

This year’s theme, Catalysts for Change: The Next Chapter in School Funding Reform, centers on advancing education policy that closes opportunity gaps and drives long-term transformation.


Key Outcomes:

✔ Build a shared understanding of how systemic inequities in school funding, legislation, and accountability policies impact student outcomes
✔ Equip education stakeholders—advocates, community leaders, and decision-makers—with tools to take informed action at the local and state levels
 

Education policy is a powerful driver of change. When thoughtfully designed, it addresses funding disparities, strengthens school systems, and ensures students from every background have access to the resources and opportunities they deserve

 

Join us for a day of learning, connection, and momentum-building as we continue writing the next chapter in education policy reform.
