Stories by Sarah A. Cordes

Sarah A. Cordes is an associate professor in the College of Education and Human Development at Temple University and received her Ph.D. in public policy from New York University. Her research explores complex issues around school choice, mobility, housing and geography with the goal of understanding connections between where students live and where they go to school, how these connections shape educational inequities, and identifying policies to address disparate outcomes. Cordes’s work has been funded by the Institute for Education Sciences, the Russell Sage and William T. Grant Foundations, the Walton Family Foundation, the Pennsylvania Department of Education, and M.I.T. Blueprint Labs. She is also the mother to three young children: six, three and 11 months.
