The Future is Ready
Underline

Welcome to a new era in education, where the future isn’t just a distant dream, but a tangible reality we are preparing students for today. At Battelle for Kids, we believe in a world where every student is ready for the challenges and opportunities of tomorrow.

That’s why we are leading a movement that empowers educators so that every student has hope, resilience, and the knowledge and skills to be future-ready.

Our vision is simple: every student future-ready.

Portrait of a Graduate

From Portrait to Practice to Impact

For more than a decade, Battelle for Kids, along with our EdLeader21 Network, has been at the forefront of developing Portraits of a Graduate—shared community visions that expand the view of student success in enrollment, enlistment, entrepreneurship, and employment.

Today, Battelle for Kids brings the Portrait to life through our Portrait to Practice work, which purposefully integrates essential academic content with durable skills for future success. Moving forward, our Portrait to Impact framework will use both data and storytelling to showcase evidence of student growth, assess their knowledge and skills, and demonstrate real-world application.
