Meet Your Hosts
U.S. Program | K-12 Education
We believe all students deserve the opportunity to succeed in school and in life. One of the most powerful ways for students to be able to take charge of their own futures is success in math. Math teaches students to make sense of the world and how to be better problem solvers and critical thinkers.
Building on the work we’ve done over the last 20 years working with partners to drive improvements in teaching and learning, the Gates Foundation is deepening our work in math in our K-12 Education to help improve math instruction and outcomes.
We look forward to a time when all students can see themselves as “math people” and see math as a tool to prepare them for the futures they envision for themselves.
Partnership for Los Angeles Schools
Launched in 2007, the Partnership for Los Angeles schools is an independent nonprofit, in-district partner of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), serving 13,550 students across 20 of the most underserved schools in Boyle Heights, South Los Angeles, and Watts communities. The Partnership aims to accelerate student achievement, especially for Black and Latino students, while scaling school transformation successes across its network of schools and the nation’s school districts.
