A research study that examines the impact of administrators, called equity directors, whose primary responsibility is to transform district and school structures and practices to make education more equitable and just for racially, ethically and linguistically marginalized students. Principal Investigators: Dr. Decoteau Irby, University of Illinois at Chicago, Dr. Terrance L. Green, The University of Texas at Austin, and Dr. Ann Ishimaru, University of Washington.

William T. Grant Scholar, Dr. Terrance L. Green led a research study that analyzed 160 districts’ racial equity policies to determine whether policy components cluster in certain districts and the extent to which district characteristics predict classes that share similar racial equity policies.

Led by Dr. Matthew Giani and the Olivia Technologies team, this study seeks to evaluate the implementation and impact of home education connected (HEC) devices on the education outcomes of rural middle school students.
