About Springfield Empowerment Zone Partnership
Massachusetts consistently ranks among the top states for educational outcomes, yet it faces significant opportunity gaps. The Springfield Empowerment Zone Partnership (SEZP), established in 2015, aims to improve the long-term life outcomes for over 5,000 students across 16 middle and high schools. SEZP collaborates closely with Springfield Public Schools, the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, and the Springfield Education Association to enhance educational equity.
As a network of schools within Springfield, SEZP leverages a strong partnership with the school district and local teachers' union, while embracing the flexibility and innovation of autonomous school models. Each school within SEZP enjoys considerable autonomy in areas such as curriculum, staffing, scheduling, and budgeting, while being held accountable for achieving significant gains for historically marginalized students. SEZP is committed to equity and anti-racism, actively addressing the systemic challenges faced by our students and families.
