Registration for the 2025 DIAL EE Institute is now open! Happening on October 15-17, the DIAL EE Institute will serve as a space for district teams to collaborate and create an action plan based on fiscal, academic, and community data shared at the institute. Attendees will hear from several keynote speakers, view a film screening, and have the option to work with a facilitator to get started on their action plans.

Welcome to the Center for District Innovation and Leadership in Early Education!

Our Mission

The Center for District Innovation and Leadership in Early Education (DIAL EE) works as a convener, facilitator, policy advocate, connector and partner, to co-create student-centered solutions from the ground up that uphold every child’s promise from the start.

We believe that through genuine collaboration, local education agencies and community partners can give children a strong foundation by creating early education strategies attuned to the needs of children and families. We exist to make this belief a reality.

The Center for District Innovation and Leadership in Early Education (DIAL EE) is part of Cultivate Learning at the University of Washington.
