3 other organizations in the IRS Business Master File list the same street address. matched by us

We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission and programs · 2024

• COMMUNITY SCHOOLS INITIATIVE - THE FOUNDATION'S COMMUNITY SCHOOLS INITIATIVE SUPPORTS THE DEVELOPMENT OF COMMUNITY SCHOOLS AS AN EDUCATIONAL STRATEGY IN THE AMERICAN SOUTH, A REGION WITH PERSISTENT PATTERNS OF UNDERINVESTMENT IN PUBLIC EDUCATION AND THE HIGHEST CHILD POVERTY RATE IN THE NATION. COMMUNITY SCHOOLS ARE CO-CREATED THROUGH PARTNERSHIPS AMONG EDUCATORS AND SCHOOL LEADERS, COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, STUDENTS, FAMILIES, AND LOCAL BUSINESS AND INSTITUTIONS TO MEET STUDENTS' ACADEMIC AND NON-ACADEMIC NEEDS. THROUGH ITS INITIATIVE, THE FOUNDATION HAS BUILT A REGIONAL COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE TO SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF COMMUNITY SCHOOLS ACROSS ARKANSAS, LOUISIANA AND MISSISSIPPI.

  Expenses $1,197,475 · Grants $1,004,422

• GRANTS TO EDUCATORS - TO IMPROVE STUDENT LEARNING, THE FOUNDATION PROVIDES GRANTS TO INDIVIDUALS AND TEAMS OF EDUCATORS TO SUPPORT INSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICE AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT ACROSS ALL SUBJECT AREAS AND GRADE LEVELS. BY DIRECTLY FUNDING EDUCATOR-CONCEIVED AND LED PROJECTS, THE FOUNDATION ENABLES EDUCATORS TO CHART THEIR OWN COURSE TO SOLVE TEACHING AND LEARNING CHALLENGES. THE FOUNDATION GLEANS KNOWLEDGE FROM THESE GRANTS TO SHARE WHAT WORKS WITH THE FIELD AND TO INFORM OUR BROADER BODY OF WORK.

  Expenses $825,143 · Grants $767,051

• AWARDS FOR TEACHING EXCELLENCE - THE FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AWARDS FOR TEACHING EXCELLENCE AT OUR ANNUAL GALA TO HONOR THE CRITICAL WORK THAT PUBLIC SCHOOL EDUCATORS DO EVERY DAY. IN 2025, WE CELEBRATED 48 EXEMPLARY EDUCATORS, ALL FROM DIFFERENT STATES, IN FRONT OF AN AUDIENCE OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ONLINE.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

The first 25 listed. Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.
