Uncover the
Unseen Problem
See what schools value, what they measure, and what students experience.
Join the Cause
Held each February during Black History Month, our MWWV Summit exists to ask one question: are our schools measuring what actually matters for every student, or only what’s easy to count?
This summit was built on purpose, to center the students and communities the system too often leaves out of the conversation, and to put the leaders who can change that in one room.
District, charter, and county leaders in the room together.
My biggest takeaway was hearing from our student voices. Their voices were a true testament for us to listen to and understand circumstances/stories of every one of our students. Past summit attendee
