Grants included start-up support for the newly established Cleveland Transformation Alliance; support for the Cleveland Metropolitan School District’s (CMSD) school portfolio, talent and academic efforts; and support for the Higher Education Compact. The Foundation also supported new school design for CMSD high schools, Breakthrough Charter Schools and Stepstone Academy. The Foundation also supported Teach For America’s expansion in Cleveland. Total education grantmaking was $3,351,750.
