Collaborators and Funders
Generous support from national funders makes up approximately 45% of ERS revenue, with the rest coming from local sources to support our deep, multiyear partnerships in districts, states, and schools. This national support enables us to:
Leverage our comparative database and findings from deep partnerships to understand how system transformation and strategic resource use drive student outcomes
Share learnings and tools with the field to build demand for system and school redesign
Build understanding of system transformation and resource allocation among a wider audience of current and up-and-coming district and state leaders and decision makers
Influence national and state policy and practice
Partner with change agents to accelerate impact
Build organizational capacity through investments in recruiting, hiring, staff development, leadership time, and infrastructure
