The Problem | The Opportunity

13%

Representation matters for male educators too. While the number of Black and Latino children is rapidly rising, the number of Black and Latino male principals is not. Currently, only 13% of their Principals are Black or Latino males, and that number is not moving. That number does not represent the population of kids we are serving.

48%

Representation matters for kids. The National Center For Education Statistics found that 48% of school-aged children are Black or Latino and projected that majority of the children in our school systems will be children of color.

17%

Lack of Diversity. Black and Latinos make up 17% of the US population; however, they only make up 1% of CEO's in Fortune 500 companies. While white people make up 63% of the US population, they make up 74% of the CEOs in the Ed Sector and 91% of CEO's at Fortune 500 companies.
