What is the Yass Prize?

The Yass Prize for Sustainable, Transformational, Outstanding and Permissionless education, now in its fourth year, is a rapidly growing effort to find, reward, celebrate and expand best-in-class education organizations from every sector, in every state, and to create unprecedented partnerships that accelerate impact with the speed and urgency our students deserve. The Yass Prize and STOP Awards Initiative is accelerating education opportunity for students and freedom for parents and teachers all over the country.

After three rounds of rigorous judging and over 850 judges weighing in, we are happy to introduce the new cohort of Yass Prize Finalists. Each receive a minimum of $500,000 to grow and expand in ways that will allow more students to receive the type of education they deserve.

School needs to look different, and this new cohort is the single best example of the diversity of excellence and transformational innovation our country has to offer. These schools and organizations are a testament to the positive direction that pre-K to 12 education is headed in as we embark on a new school year. Congratulations, all!
