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-sl… via @EdBuild
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/frontier
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/frontier
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/edbui…
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/frontier
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/frontier
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/edbuilde…

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/edbui…
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/frontier

Education data should be accessible to everyone. That’s why we’re releasing our Data Dashboard, which allows users to analyze and visualize data like we do @EdBuild: shiny.edbuild.org/apps/edbui…
Our work has taught us that educational equity must involve rethinking school district borders. Here’s how. edbuild.org/content/frontier
