Our Mission

To reimagine public education in low-income communities of color to prepare conscious, critical thinkers who are equipped to graduate from college and create a more equitable and sustainable world.

Our Values

Justice

We examine bias, racism and prejudice. We deliver culturally-responsive curricula. We succeed when students’ race and class cease to predict their level of achievement.*

Community

We care. We collaborate. We respect the rights and voices of our stakeholders.

Curiosity

We question. We explore. We innovate.

Sustainability

We think globally and act locally. We adapt. We encourage systems thinking to create a sustainable future.

Leadership

We listen. We think critically. We advocate. We shift public discourse. We are our own superheroes.
