About Us

Future Ready Schools® & All4Ed

Future Ready Schools® (FRS) is the nation’s largest network of innovative and passionate educators. Through relevant and ongoing activities, district and school leaders collaborate in all aspects of planning and implementation to advance evidence-based practices and realize the rigorous and engaging student-centered learning environments envisioned for all students in K–12 public, private, and charter schools across the United States. FRS focuses on wide-scale change management, including the development of capacity-building skills needed to deploy innovative policies and procedures within the seven “gears” of the Future Ready Framework—the backbone of the FRS network.

FRS is a project of All4Ed, a Washington, DC–based national policy, practice, and advocacy organization dedicated to ensuring that all students, particularly those underperforming and those historically underserved, graduate from high school ready for success in college, work, and citizenship.

A ROBUST PLANNING TOOL

This free online tool is designed to help district leadership teams plan systemically to use technology as a tool to effectively engage students, empower teachers, and improve learning outcomes. Through the Future Ready Dashboard, district leaders create a team, assess their district's needs, and create an action plan to track their progress over time.

Implementing meaningful digital learning requires more than purchasing devices for a school district; it requires thoughtful planning, preparation, and analysis of student outcomes, teacher development, culture, and leadership. This is where the Future Ready Dashboard can help. The dashboard takes school district leaders through each step of a systemic planning process to create a comprehensive approach and action plan for implementing digital learning before they make the next purchase, ensuring a smooth implementation.

Your Data, Your Privacy

At Future Ready Schools® (FRS), we prioritize the protection of your privacy. The Future Ready Dashboard and the collection of data are overseen by All4Ed. You can find the privacy policy accessible on every page of the dashboard. Rest assured that individual team data will remain confidential, and district-identifiable information will never be shared beyond the school district leadership team without written consent from a school district official. Furthermore, the dashboard is encrypted with industry-standard SSL.
