About EiE
Equity isn’t the end goal, it’s the starting point.
Equity in Education (EiE) exists to ensure equity is the foundation for every student Atlanta, so that all young people have access to a high-quality education and the opportunity to live full lives. We invest in bold leaders and empower our school board to advance equitable policies .
Our Vision and Mission
We envision an Atlanta where every child has a champion for equity representing them on the school board. We look to a future where every member of the village consistently demands the equitable education that Atlanta’s children deserve.
Our Mission in Action
Investing in Bold Leadership
EiE Candidate Accelerator Fellowship
We train and support future school board candidates to run successful campaigns centered on equity and advocacy toward systemic change. We ensure that those who lead reflect the diversity, needs, and values of Atlanta’s students.
Advancing Equitable Policies
Equitable Education is Policy-Driven. APS policies determine discipline practices, curriculum access, funding, and opportunity gaps. We influence these policies at the source.
Voting Local = Changing Schools. School board elections shape Atlanta’s education landscape. We mobilize voters to elect equity-first leaders.
Data + Advocacy = Power. We don’t just highlight inequities, we equip communities with the knowledge and tools to demand change.
Empowering Community
We educate voters on who is running, what they stand for, and how policies impact our schools. We organize communities around school board elections. We amplify voices through key community partnerships, sharing our stories, media, and data-driven reports.
We Are Equity in Education
