Abstract
There are numerous entities within ACM that actively work to support education and outreach. ACM coordinates these myriad efforts through its Education Council and Education Board. As described on their website:
"The Board wields the final executive and decision-making power to facilitate the work of the Education Council.
The Council is a task-force-based, networking-oriented organization whose aim is to promote ACM's educational mission to as wide a range of constituencies as possible: universities, community colleges, high schools, corporations, and the US government."
