Center for Public Education & Community Engagement
Our Mission
The TCU Center for Public Education & Community Engagement (CPECE) advocates for public education by informing others on issues that impact students, educators, schools, and communities. We study, support, and strive to strengthen public education by building partnerships, engaging in a variety of initiatives, and promoting research.
At CPECE we acknowledge education as a civil and human right as well as a public good and put resources into the community to help high school students find their path to college. The Center builds collaborative partnerships, engages in a variety of initiatives, and promotes research about related and relevant issues.
