Building Capacity for Continuity of Learning

This project supports all the state educational agencies in the region—American Samoa, Hawai‘i, and the Republic of the Marshall Islands—as they build capacity to respond to disruptions, such as those caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, seasonal typhoons, regional disease outbreaks such as dengue fever, and other systemic stressors.

Equity & School Performance

In this project, the Hawaiʻi Department of Education and Hawai‘i State Public Charter School Commission will integrate equity considerations into student support systems to improve school performance. Central to this project is the Transformation Academy and Culture Shift Institute—a scaffolded training series targeting instructional leadership and school improvement practices.

Transforming Mathematics Instruction

This project will help the Hawaiʻi Department of Education effectively transform its approach to mathematics instruction to one that is tightly aligned with evidence-based practices, is equitable and culturally responsive, and addresses the needs of all students.
