Welcome to the Stanford/SFUSD Partnership!
Stanford University and San Francisco Unified School District partnership unites research and practice to shape educational practices and policies that maximize educational experiences for all students. The Partnership matches researchers from Stanford University’s Graduate School of Education with SFUSD district leaders to address challenges and support improvements. Together, they create research projects that directly inform the school district’s work to transform teaching and learning for each and every child in the 21st century.
