The Research Alliance for New York City Schools is an independent nonpartisan research center housed at the New York University Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development. The Research Alliance conducts rigorous studies on topics that matter to the City’s public schools. We strive to advance equity and excellence in education by providing evidence about policies and practices that promote students' development and academic success.

Subscribing to our newsletter ensures you stay up to date on the latest evidence about NYC’s public schools. We will send emails about once a month highlighting Research Alliance publications, projects, events, and other important NYC education research, policy, and practice news.
