We envision a future in which the educational system serves the wellbeing and success of every student at any age.
CCER was originally founded in 2010 as the backbone for King County education initiative known as the Road Map Project, and we have since become one of Washington state’s leading experts in educational data and research.
We drive systems change by centering student experiences, engaging families and communities, and bringing together a wide range of partners to transform education in Washington.
CCER is one of Washington state’s leading experts in educational data and research, engaging communities, school districts and state agencies in a collective effort to improve student education and create positive systems change.
CCER works with schools and organizations to use data and evolve their data practices as they pursue quality education for every student.
CCER catalyzes collective action by working closely with communities and institutions to design and implement equitable solutions to systemic problems.
Racial justice: Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders deserve the dignity, resources, power, and self-determination to thrive holistically.
Educational justice: To ensure every student has quality educational opportunities, we must address inequities in educational systems by lifting from the margins and focusing on students who face the greatest barriers.
Liberatory action: Working together to educate every child and young person is an act of collective liberation and shared humanity.
Quality data: In order for educational data to be useful, it has to accurately reflect student experiences, including and especially students from marginalized communities.
Community: The strongest insights and innovations in education will come from centering students and their communities, and from working with those communities to design and implement change.
The Community Practice Partnership (CPP) is an initiative that brings together students, educators, college and career staff, school and district leaders, community-based organization(s), and college/university staff to co-create solutions that better support students in pursuing their post-secondary aspirations.
In 2024, the Community Center for Education Results (CCER) will launch the Data and Research Fellowship Program. This Fellowship is designed to increase research and data capacity among BIPOC community advocates in South King County, Washington.
