Center for Education

A gift today ensures our teachers and our classrooms are equipped for the challenges of tomorrow. Strong educators shape a community’s present and its future by expanding opportunity for every child.

The Rice Center for Education, part of the Susanne M. Glasscock School of Continuing Studies, serves as an engine for turning research into real change in Houston’s public schools, working directly with teachers and school leaders from early childhood through 12th grade. Through certificate and graduate programs, intensive professional development and school-based partnerships, the Center prepares educators to deliver academically rich, equitable learning experiences in diverse, urban classrooms. Your investment strengthens the teachers who, in turn, strengthen entire neighborhoods — multiplying impact across generations. Together, we can make a difference. Make your gift now before the 24-Hour Challenge ends.
