Delivering Measurable Impact for Young People

We turn insights into action. 

For nearly three decades, TNTP has delivered meaningful results for millions of young people and the educators who support them through research-based publications, highly personalized academic and talent consulting, and an ambitious policy agenda. Our impact is far-reaching and yet we recognize we are just scratching the surface of what we believe is possible.

The Opportunity Myth Report

Shifting Paradigms Through Research and Insights  

We shape the national conversation about PK–12 education with our publications, which dive beneath the surface of research data to reveal critical insights that fuel innovation and change. 

Our report The Opportunity Myth has been recognized as essential reading for understanding how opportunity gaps play out in students’ experiences.

Our Impact

In 2025 alone, we improved academic experiences for millions of students. 

After partnering with TNTP, teachers and leaders report feeling better equipped to improve instructional practices and increase student engagement. Students receive stronger teaching, grade-level assignments, and high-quality instructional materials. And the adults around them are more likely to hold them to high standards–a key predictor of academic success.

Designing the Future of PK–12 Education

Over the next decade, we will strengthen and expand our cross-sector work to rethink interconnected systems and improve young people’s lives beyond the four walls of the classroom.  

We will broaden our impact measurements to track the key PK–12 experiences and indicators shown to lead to long-term economic and social mobility. We will work relentlessly to make sure all students have an academic foundation, social capital, and career awareness and readiness
