Objective, Rigorous, and Useful Research to Understand the Post-Katrina School Reforms in New Orleans

Our Purpose

In the wake of the Hur­ri­cane Kat­ri­na tragedy, an unprece­dent­ed new sys­tem of pub­lic edu­ca­tion was put in place. The Edu­ca­tion Research Alliance for New Orleans (ERA-New Orleans) is a research cen­ter at Tulane Uni­ver­si­ty that col­lab­o­rates with local edu­ca­tion stake­hold­ers to pro­duce objec­tive, rig­or­ous, and use­ful research to inform the community’s under­stand­ing of how to improve stu­dents’ expe­ri­ences in schools and beyond.
