“Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love. ”

Free College Handbook: How to Start Tuition-Free ProgramsThis handbook helps leaders create free college programs in their communities. Written by experts at the Upjohn Institute for Employment Research, it answers 25 common questions about Promise programs - local scholarships that cover college tuition for residents. The guide is for mayors, college leaders, nonprofits, and community groups who want to remove tuition barriers and increase college attendance. Most Promise programs only cover tuition and fees, not housing, food, books, or transportation. But even covering just tuition can change expectations, get more students into college, and make communities better places to live and work. The Kresge Foundation funded this updated 2025 version, which includes videos and connects to a new Promise Programs Hub website with program databases and research.
Houston Schools Research Group Studies Education EquityThe Houston Education Research Consortium (HERC) is a partnership between Rice University's Kinder Institute and eight Houston-area school districts. They work together to study how to make schools more fair and equal for all students. HERC does long-term research on important school topics like helping students who move between schools, supporting kids learning English, improving pre-K programs, and getting students ready for college and careers. They look at real data from schools to help leaders make better decisions. Recent studies include how the state's school grading system affects low-income students, what parents think about HISD's Parent University program, and how social-emotional learning helps with school discipline. They also studied how Hurricane Harvey affected homeless students and how COVID-19 changed school enrollment. The research helps school districts understand what works best for students, especially those who face challenges like poverty or language barriers. All their reports and data are shared publicly to help improve education in Houston.
