Our Mission

Our Vision
The Education Law Association will improve education by developing connections between education law, the study of education law, and the application of education law in the field while promoting diversity, equity, inclusivity, and excellence in all levels of education.
We carry out these ends by holding meetings to present and discuss education law issues, stimulating the teaching and learning of education law, and issuing publications and other information on education law. The Education Law Association serves as a clearinghouse for information on research and publications and provides other member-related services.
