The 74

Mission

The 74 Media Inc is a non-profit news site dedicated to covering education in America. They believe the public education system is in crisis, with less than half of students reading or doing math at grade-level. They combat misinformation by providing accurate and unbiased reporting. The organization has produced a multipart series on the impact of the pandemic-induced economic recession on educational disparities among children from poorer families. They have also collaborated with the Progressive Policy Institute to host online panels on important K-12 education themes. Additionally, they have focused on the mental health consequences of the COVID pandemic on students, highlighting the challenges they face and the efforts schools are making to support them.
