Advancing Equity in Education
Avela is a platform for school districts and CMOs to make equitable, data-driven decisions on enrollment, class assignments, and teacher placement.
We empower school and district leaders to improve educational outcomes, equity, and accountability.
We are a team of educators, economists, and engineers bringing Nobel Prize-winning capabilities to all schools, districts, CMOs, and governments. We envision a world where all students have access to high quality, affordable education in a system that learns from each other and spreads best practices.
“With our algorithm, 30,000 students, roughly one-third of applicants, were able to choose their school, rather than being manually assigned. ”
“Choice matters. Getting your first choice school increases achievement by 0.4 standard deviations in Math and 0.14 in reading.”
