Education Lab

We're working to improve the systems that support learning experiences in Boston.

We want to find and test ideas to improve education for people in the City. This includes students, parents, teachers, and other community members.

Tests explored by the lab include those related to:

  • the Mayor's efforts to support 21st-century learning
  • system-wide operations, from food to transportation, and
  • efforts to empower students' voices.
