| Abstract | Education Cities is a network of 28 city-based organizations in 22 cities united by one goal: increasing the number of great public schools. The members are nonprofits with deep ties to their communities. They invest in high-impact schools and nonprofits, organizations that recruit and champion talented teachers and principals, engage community members as partners for change, and advance pro-children and teacher policies. Members serve as education "harbormasters" who facilitate safe and cooperative navigation in a challenging space. Education harbormasters build and coordinate the efforts to improve education in their city. Members believe that all students can succeed if given access to great public schools, that schools can succeed if educators are empowered to make key decisions in their classrooms and schools, and that school systems can succeed when schools operate with autonomy while being held accountable for strong student results. To achieve these goals, members identify the most impactful strategies in cities across the country and building tools and services to help members and other city leaders achieve faster progress. This report serves as an introduction to the "harbormaster" approach and the work of this organization. It shares more about their vision and defines what it means to be an education city. It explores the key role that aspiring education harbormasters can play to build education cities, and illustrates four key strategies behind the harbormaster approach using examples from members.
