It's a Battle to Make Our Schools Welcoming and Inclusive for All

To build a more just society, we need our schools to be places of learning, healing, and opportunity for the students they are charged with serving. We need welcoming and inclusive schools that enable children to gain a deep understanding of their world, preparing them to fully participate in our democracy and society and giving them the freedom to pursue their dreams.

The ELC Protects Students Learning to Speak English

The Education Law Center's (ELC's) mission is to ensure access to a quality public education for all children in Pennsylvania. The ELC pursues this mission by advocating on behalf of the most at-risk students—children living in poverty, children of color, children in the foster care and juvenile justice systems, children with disabilities, LGBTQ students, English language learners, and children experiencing homelessness. The ELC addresses fairness in school funding, equal access, and dismantling the school-to-prison pipeline. The ELC is currently involved in two cases filed on behalf of English language learners referenced in this article.
