CEN is a growing network of high-performing rural school districts using their defining strengths to tackle their biggest challenges. We are empowering young people to build a future with more opportunity, prosperity, and impact. We are acutely aware that in rural settings, as the school goes, so goes the community. CEN promotes the P-20 Model for 21st Century School Transformation which focuses on heightened college and career aspirations through continuous educational attainment and industry-related certifications. We believe a mindset of high aspirations and high expectations on those fronts leads naturally to lifetimes of happiness, productivity, and success. CEN has its roots in rural America (Roscoe, Texas). We unequivocally believe that the health and wellbeing of the United States is dependent on a thriving rural America. An exceptionally educated and highly skilled rural workforce is the surest path to that prosperity.
