Throughout the year, Ed Trust—West staffers are in the field — working with educators to identify best practices that help all students excel, collaborating with advocates to advance state and local reforms geared toward closing achievement and opportunity gaps, and advising lawmakers on Capitol Hill of the most promising strategies in education, pre-K through college.
We also speak at conferences and other convenings to share our work and the results of all of these efforts in the field. Below, you’ll find PowerPoint slides and other digital copies of the presentations we’ve given over time. (The most recent ones appear first.)
