Transforming education systems through data and collaboration so all students succeed.

Alone, we do good. Together, we do greater good.

E3 Alliance is a regional, data-driven education collaborative based in Austin, Texas. We are helping to build the strongest educational pipeline in the country to drive regional economic prosperity. As the pioneer in collective impact, E3 teams up with a broad range of community representatives to work together on achieving lasting systemic change. Since 2006 we have engaged 15 school districts, eight institutions of higher education, numerous businesses and nonprofits, and policy leaders across Central Texas to address complex community issues in education. Our combined efforts seek to improve student outcomes across every demographic of our 600,000 children and students throughout the region – from cradle to career!
