The future depends on our children's ability to successfully navigate the challenges of an ever-changing and complex world. The Public Education Foundation, an independent nonprofit Nevada corporation, is dedicated to strategic giving, imaginative problem-solving, social entrepreneurship, talent development and public education reform.
The Foundation has the experience necessary to engage educators, policymakers, philanthropists and the community in new ways to cultivate excellence, improve performance, ensure accountability and raise the bar for students and educators.
During the past 20 years, the Foundation has demonstrated the independence, flexibility and patience to pursue the changes that educators often cannot. We have played the critical roles of generating private sector funding to incubate new ideas, investing in promising and best practices, modeling programs that would have otherwise remained unexplored and supporting projects and initiatives that stimulate solutions and produce results.
The Public Education Foundation works to...
Improve the quality of teaching and learning
Impact student achievement
Increase the graduation rate
Advance entrepreneurial leadership and talent development
Champion school improvement
Through a portfolio of services, innovative programs and "pipeline" initiatives, the Foundation has established high-leverage and high-impact public-private partnerships advancing district-wide reform efforts, empowering educators and students, leveraging resources and focusing on sustained lasting results. We recognize the power and magic of public-private partnerships and continue to be guided by a spirit of innovation and a willingness to take calculated risks in an unending pursuit of bold new thinking and effective approaches to public school reform.
The Public Education Foundation believes in the promise of public education. We believe that every young mind matters and that all children can learn. Together with your generous support, we will continue the infusion of energy and ideas which is critical to ensuring that new and promising programs can earn a place in our classrooms and that philanthropic giving makes a lasting difference for our children and for our future.
