Nonprofit 'Facing History and Ourselves' fights racial inequity through education
Facing History and Ourselves Cleveland has partnered with area educators for more than 20 years, offering one-on-one teaching support, classroom strategies, and lessons on the events shaping Ohio and the world. We support a diverse network of schools—public, charter, independent, and religious—across all grade levels and subject areas.
We have deep relationships with all Cleveland area school districts, including the Cleveland Metropolitan School District (CMSD). In 2012, CMSD and Facing History started a high school, Facing History New Tech, where Facing History curriculum and values are embedded into every grade level and discipline.
