Welcome to Red Apple EdCo.

Red Apple EdCo is an education nonprofit that works to make school systems safe and healthy for kids and parents. We believe that when parents are able to show up safe and successful at school, students are able to do the same. Our team uses our research based rubric to identify gaps in school system safety and health. We then work alongside school system leaders to co-design solutions and measure results. Our results speak for themselves. Our partners have seen double digit increases in student attendance. Double digit increases in parent participation in school events. Double digit increases in positive parent contact and more.

Having spent time in school systems of all kinds, our team is experienced and understands the needs of parents and school communities. We know that student safety is intricately linked to a variety of factors and we support school systems and their stakeholders with identifying and addressing those factors in an effective and efficient way.

School safety and family health are all of our jobs. We are all in community with one another and as a result responsible for the collective whole. Red Apple EdCo works to ensure that students and families remain at the forefront of transformative school health and safety practice so that our school communities are better situated to provide the education and support kids need to go and add value to the world around them.

Meet Our Partners

Our program sponsors and participants have helped to change outcomes for so many students and families. Since 2019, Red Apple has not only embedded itself in the Greater Kansas City Metropolitan Area but other states as well in an effort to bring attention to the growing need for school safety and family health. Our work is just getting started but we are grateful to our early adopters.

We’ve successfully impacted 145,617 students across the United States.

This number represents the number of children served by our collective school district partners. Red Apple EdCo is committed to sustainable systemic change and these numbers are only the beginning of our efforts.

Partner school districts are 86% BIPOC children of color, on average.

Research shows that high poverty communities of color disproportionately experience negative health and safety outcomes. We are purposeful in concentrating our work in communities that need us most.

To support parent programming, $20,000+ grants are awarded to partner districts.

We put our money where our mission is and support classroom teachers with small amount grants aimed at improving professional practice.
