One in five U.S. public school students attends a rural school, according to the National Center for Education Statistics, underscoring the critical role these schools play in shaping educational and economic outcomes for millions of students.

This Thursday, join ÉçÇøºÚÁÏ and the Progressive Policy Institute for a special conversation about how rural collaboratives can transform life trajectories for rural high school students and create sustainable economic development for their communities. 

The Rural Collaborative model, inspired by Texas’ Rural Schools Innovation Zone (RSIZ), aims to better align educational pathways with local economic needs. Speakers will include RSIZ Executive Director Michael Gonzalez, Texas State Rep. Brad Buckley, Colorado State Rep. Eliza Hamrick and Empower Schools CEO Alyssa Morton. RSVP right here.
