The Coalition of Essential Schools is a US organization created to further a type of whole-school reform originally envisioned by founder Ted Sizer in his book, Horace's Compromise.[1] The group began in 1984 with twelve schools and grew to 600 members.
In 2014 it merged with the Forum for Education and operated from headquarters in Portland, Maine.[2] The organization's executive board voted in December 2016 to cease the organization’s operations.[3]
