Our Mission
Ensuring every child in Nashville has equitable access to a high-quality
public education that promotes rigorous academic outcomes, meets
students’ individual needs, and prepares all students for life-long success.
Our Priorities
- Providing valuable resources around student and family support, student achievement, teacher recruitment and retention, community transformation, school operations, and financial resources.
- Elevating school leaders and their best practices.
- Navigating the authorizing and accountability processes.
Why We Collaborate
“Nashville is a thriving city. Our students—every single one of them—should be provided the opportunity and education to be a part our city’s success. No one person or organization has all the answers to get us there. But together, we absolutely can.”
— Steering Committee Members (Randy Dowell, Lagra Newman & Todd Dickson)
