The Center for Education Reform is a Washington, DC-based organization operating in the primary and secondary education sector. Founded in 1993, it aims to broaden educational opportunities to improve economic outcomes for American youth by promoting innovation, freedom, and flexibility in U.S. schooling. Its activities include media outreach, events, policy engagement with lawmakers, and connecting educational innovators with schools and investors to accelerate their impact. The organization serves learners at all levels and the institutions and policymakers that influence education, seeking to reduce bureaucracy and outdated structures that hinder progress. As a small-to-mid-sized entity, CER leverages its network and experience to help learners shape their education through partnerships and advocacy. In June 2025, CER published its 2025 Parent Power report, noting Florida as ranked number one in that year's Parent Power rankings.
