Welcome to PowerED Parents (“we,” “our,” “us”). We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering parents and caregivers of K–12 students with tools, resources, and guidance to help their children thrive academically, emotionally, and socially.
Your privacy is extremely important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal information when you interact with our website, membership platform, online community, and related services (collectively, the “Services”).
