The Alliance plans to enhance its research productivity and timeliness and to build its communications capacity. More specifically, their goals are to execute fast-response research that addresses emerging policy questions, effectively communicate with key stakeholders about the findings from studies, maintain longitudinal data archives to support rigorous research, and raise their profile and visibility.The Research Alliance works with the New York City Department of Education and other stakeholders to identify important questions for research and to provide strong evidence to help solve problems and build capacity in schools.
This grant will support the Research Alliance for New York City School’s efforts to be a sustainable source of high-quality, nonpartisan evidence that helps advance equity and excellence in the city’s public schools.
