In July 1987, concerns about the impact of state budget cuts on the quality of education in the Redlands Unified School District energized a small group of parents to explore ways to raise funds to promote and encourage excellence in education. The shared concerns of these forward thinking community members resulted in the formation of the Redlands Educational Partnership.
