The League of Innovative Students began as a partnership with the Digital Promise Networks and Partnerships team. 36 students from 18 different school districts engaged in an eight-month collaboration with members of the Center for Inclusive Innovation team and played integral roles in shaping two Research and Development (R&D) projects. Through their involvement, students learned about the many different forms advocacy can look like, and did user research on recruiting priority students and researched an equity-centered challenge in their community.
