Concentrico has partnered with the incredible folks at FHI 360's US Education division and supports their work with the US Department of Education's Islands Comprehensive Center (R2CC). For the next five years, this initiative will serve Puerto Rico and the United States Virgin Islands' education departments in providing capacity-building services to identify, implement, and sustain effective evidence-based practices that support improved educator and student outcomes.
The USDE Comprehensive Centers program supports the establishment of Comprehensive Centers (CCs) to provide capacity-building services to State educational agencies (SEAs), regional educational agencies (REAs), local educational agencies (LEAs), and schools that improve educational opportunities and outcomes, close achievement gaps, and improve the quality of instruction for all students, and particularly for groups of students with the greatest need, including students from low-income families and students attending schools implementing comprehensive support and improvement or targeted or additional targeted support.
Our team will lead engagement and partnerships in this project to ensure these systems thrive.
