Celebrating 20 Years of IES

The Institute of Education Sciences is celebrating 20 years. As the U.S. Department of Education’s independent, nonpartisan statistics, research, and evaluation arm, we have worked with educators, parents, policymakers, researchers, and the public since 2002 to transform education sciences and improve outcomes for all learners.

Over the next few months, we will tell the stories of our work and the significant impact that—together—we’ve had on education policy and practice. There will also be opportunities for you to share your own stories and vision for the future of the education sciences. Please use the toolkits provided below to join in our celebration.

Thank you for being part of the journey to create a modern Institute of Education Sciences. We look forward to continuing to advance the field together.
