Guess who's back? Great news! Our friends over at @EdTrust updated the 50-state K-12 funding policy database that you all know and love (funded.edbuild.org) Additionally, if you're feeling sentimental, you can once again access all of our reports in our new website layout.
States cannot spend their way out of local inequality in school funding. We need a better solution: edbuild.org/content/clean-… via @EdBuild
Just a reminder that @EdBuild is closing our doors tomorrow. More thoughts TK but may be worth taking another look at our website and sending any LAST MINUTE questions to me or @ZahavaStadler Lots of new content up, incl. tools that let you be your own EdBuilder!!
School district borders often don’t make much sense, but the map we have is no accident. Changing that means changing the state laws that govern school district borders: edbuild.org/content/fronti…
Students have a right to an equal education under their states’ constitutions, but too often school district borders stand in the way. It’s time to take them on: edbuild.org/content/fronti…
Clear and accessible data visualizations should be available to everyone. That’s why we've released our Data Dashboard, which allows users to create #dataviz like an EdBuilder: shiny.edbuild.org/apps/edbuild-d…
School district borders can change—secession efforts like Gardendale showed us that. But what if school district borders could change in ways that improved educational equity? edbuild.org/content/fronti…
School district borders are not natural boundaries. They are political boundaries that have changed dramatically over time. With the right imagination and with kids as our priority, we can change them again: edbuild.org/content/fronti…
Over the past five years, EdBuild has advised states around the country on how to improve their school funding policies. Here’s what we learned about what makes a more equitable school funding system: edbuild.org/content/edbuil…
Also from @EdBuild, there is a $23 billion gap between majority white and majority non-white districts, despite the fact that these districts serve the same number of students bit.ly/37FCMI5
From @EdBuild: school succession and fractured districts contribute to huge racial and socioeconomic inequality within states bit.ly/3dgrzij

Education policy is complicated, but it’s a lot easier when you can easily analyze and visualize important data with our Data Dashboard. shiny.edbuild.org/apps/edbuild-d…
Our school district borders often worsen inequities, because they weren’t drawn with the needs of students in mind. It doesn’t have to be that way. edbuild.org/content/fronti…
Could you reform your state’s school funding system? Try your hand with EdBuilder. edbuild.org/content/edbuil…
