Parramore Education & Innovation District

In partnership with the College of Community Innovation and Education and UCF Downtown, CHEI is leading a multi-stakeholder initiative to develop and enhance an educational ecosystem in the Parramore Communities adjacent to the UCF Downtown campus. Our goal is to provide a pathway for every Parramore resident to earn a postsecondary credential. With support from the Helios Education Foundation, the Kresge Foundation, and JPMorgan Chase & Co., we are building seamless educational pathways from pre-school-to-PhD with partners at Valencia College, Orange County Public Schools, the City of Orlando, Rosen Foundation, Early Learning Coalition, and other community-based and faith organizations who are stakeholders in Parramore student success. Together, we will leverage the Central Florida Education Ecosystem Database (CFEED) to track student progress and coordinate a network of strategic interventions to enhance student opportunities and attainment.
