Putting Students First

Get to Know Ed

 

Students & Alumni

We believe that Birmingham’s children have limitless potential and that, given the opportunity, they can achieve whatever they set their minds to. We believe that education should extend beyond the classroom and include authentic experiences with partners throughout the city. 

Community Education & Engagement

We believe that the voices of our students and families should lead the discussion, that we can leverage our social capital to empower them to demand change. We believe in committing to action that is aligned to the desires of our community.

“Together, we will work to unlock the bold abilities of our students.”

— Ashley Samuels, Ph.D., Executive Director

Keep up with Ed
