educational policy improvement center

EPIC is a nonprofit consulting group that strives to help educators better equip students for success. We help districts and schools create learning communities with the right systems and supports so that all students are graduating truly ready for college, career, and life. At EPIC, we firmly believe that our schools and our society have the responsibility to prepare students for life, not just tests. In todays global, connected world, information itself is available 24/7. Its no longer what you know, but what you can do with this knowledge. This isnt new, nor is the concept of College and Career Readiness, but somehow the system remains focused mostly on content knowledge.This deficit in what we are valuing, teaching, and measuring undermines every students opportunity for success, but especially those in underserved populations and struggling schools. This needs to change. Everywhere. We see a future where education works for all students; where readiness and success are defined by students engagement, adaptability, and what they can do with their knowledge, rather than just content mastery and testing. We want to be a creative catalyst inspiring, equipping, and linking schools to create this future.
