Research Practice Partnerships

The REEd Center Research Partnerships facilitate collaborations between researchers and school districts, county offices and state education agencies across the nation. The goal of the partnerships is to bring together practitioners, researchers, and policymakers in order to engage in a thriving learning community in an effort to enhance educational opportunities and reducing inequality for students.

The objectives of the partnerships are to:

• Promote and encourage a shared environment for educators, researchers, and policymakers to collaborate
• Generate useful and actionable research on trends, programs, and policies that informs and improves educational practices
• Ensure that research and support aligns with district, county office and state priorities and leads to evidence-based and data-driven decision making
