Neighborhood Education Advocates
What is a Neighborhood Education Advocate (NEA)?
NEA’s link residents and business owners with high-performing schools to enhance families’ and the community’s understanding of important K-12 education issues. They help create stronger connections between each group for the benefit of students and families.
NEA’s understand that parents and families make their communities stronger and stronger communities enhance schools. Similarly, stronger schools enhance students’ experiences and academic growth.
