The Community Education Commission (CEC), launched in May 2018, is a new nonprofit commissioned by the Mayor of Detroit that brings together top leadership from across Detroit’s educational landscape. The CEC’s core mission is to collectively break down barriers that prevent families from accessing quality schools in Detroit. The CEC Board members are appointed by the Mayor of Detroit and include top leaders from Detroit Public Schools Community District Superintendent, the charter school sector, labor unions, philanthropic organizations, the business community and educators.
