P21 Coalition

The P21 Coalition (Partnership for 21st Century Learning) is an organization dedicated to transforming education to prepare students for modern challenges. It promotes a focus on skills like critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and creativity—sometimes called "21st-century skills." The coalition works with schools, educators, and communities to update teaching methods, curriculum, and assessments, ensuring students develop these essential abilities alongside core subjects like math and reading. Its goal is to equip students with the versatile skills needed for successful careers and informed citizenship in a rapidly changing world.
