We advance educational equity by offering leadership coaching, instructional assessments and academic strategy advising

About us

Every student deserves opportunities in life, and every educator committed to providing those opportunities, deserves support. Those beliefs drive us to work alongside schools to support great teaching so that we can work towards guaranteeing that all students are receiving high-quality instruction. We partner with over 900 schools - both district and charter - in underserved communities around the country, thus impacting more than 330,000 students. Third-party evaluations confirm that when schools have the right basic conditions in place and partner with ANet, they achieve 6-8 months of additional learning over a two-year period compared to schools not partnering with ANet. At ANet we are committed to living out our core values, both across our organization and with our partner schools. We acknowledge that systemic inequities impact student access to opportunities and that in order to ensure educational equity for all students, we must center on the experiences of those from marginalized communities to guide our work. We work to deepen our understanding of how race, class, power and privilege influence the education system as well as influence our own perspectives. To do so, we provide ongoing learning opportunities through org-wide professional development, affinity groups, working groups, and resource sharing. Individuals who join ANet have the opportunity to be part of a dynamic, values-driven, and team-oriented organization that is committed to having impact in schools by investing in each other and learning together. We were named as The NonProfit Times “Best Nonprofits to Work For” and work tirelessly to foster a working environment where the unique perspectives, backgrounds, and identities of our staff members are valued.

    Recently, Louisiana State Superintendent of Education Dr. Cade Brumley announced a significant reduction in student testing time for their statewide ELA and math assessments. Educators across the state realize the need for assessments that assess students' mastery of the standards while allowing the most time for instruction.  https://lnkd.in/gavnmzPS We see these problems echoed in our partners across the nation. We’ve detailed the problem with assessments today and how we need fewer, better assessments.  https://lnkd.in/gWmTnus2 Educators need high-quality assessments, occurring less often throughout the year, that allow educators to take immediate action and align with their curriculum and high-quality instructional materials. If you’d like to learn more about how our assessment product and assessment strategy services work together to help educators put teaching first, download our whitepaper. https://lnkd.in/gyT2K5A4

  • According to the NAEP data, 64% of 12th-grade students graduate without achieving proficiency in reading (NCES, 2019). Is it too late to intervene and support these older struggling readers? We don't think so. ANet is embarking on an exciting partnership with Reading Reimagined, supported by the Advanced Education Research and Development Fund (AERDF) and Stanford University, to identify and teach these students the foundational skills needed to up-level their reading.
