Education in Atlanta is an equity-led newsroom committed to covering one of Atlanta’s most underreported stories: the effort to improve schools for all children within the metro Atlanta area, especially those who have been disenfranchised from quality education due to race, socioeconomic, or disability.

To ensure our work stays authentic, we value the stories of teachers, parents, administrators, community members, and students.
