Advocate. Innovate. Lead.
Here we tell our story--the story of public education and CKEC's role in it. We tell it through our framework: Advocate. Innovate. Lead.
We Advocate by being a voice: for students to ensure equity in all classrooms and for school leaders to collectively be heard by the legislature and the public.
We Innovate by supporting our districts to think about education through a new lens--outside the box of known structures--in order to make decisions that have the most positive impacts on students.
We Lead by helping teachers bring research into the classroom, by collaborating with other agencies, and by preparing future teachers and school leaders.
​
These are our stories. Stories of CKEC. Stories of our member districts.
