Emily K. Penner is Associate Professor in the School of Education at the University of California, Irvine. Her research focuses on K-12 education policy, and considers the ways that districts, schools, and teachers can contribute to or ameliorate educational inequality. She is currently involved in projects examining teacher recruitment and retention in constrained labor and housing markets, how school sorting processes affect student opportunities to learn, and how educator-initiated curricula that center the cultural and historical experiences of traditionally marginalized students impact student outcomes.
