Priority Investing
K–12 education has long been a Casey Foundation priority investment area.
This report presents Casey’s strategy for investing in its Education Portfolio. Included is the theory of change, layers of influence, how results are measured and the ultimate social change/value that is involved. The appendices include Casey’s three education investment strands showing grantees and investment amounts at the time of this report.
The harsh reality is that K–12 education in the United States has so far failed to graduate all young people and prepare them for adult success. Large gaps still exist between low-income and minority kids and their richer, white peers in school environment, administration support, teacher quality, academic options, graduation assistance or college preparedness.
We hope you'll find value in this report. We’d love to get a little information from you, which we'll use to notify you about relevant new resources.
