The Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded Uplift Education $5,059,060 under the Education Innovation and Research (EIR) federal grant program (CFDA 84.411) to support the PATH TO PURPOSE project. The five-year project grant runs from December 2021 through December 2026 and will fund the creation and implementation of evidence-based innovations designed to improve student achievement and attainment for high-need students. As the EIR program aims to support field-initiated innovations through a tiered-evidence framework, the PATH TO PURPOSE project at Uplift Education's Peak Academy in Irving, TX will likely develop and test instructional practices, professional development models, or social-emotional programs with the goal of building an evidence base to improve outcomes for disadvantaged students. The $5M project scope and duration indicate multi-year funding to research and scale up interventions showing promise of meeting the EIR program's goal of advancing student success.
