Mission Statement
The mission of Freedom School Partners is too inspire our scholars to love reading and learning, believe in themselves, and create extraordinary futures. Freedom School Partners fulfills this mission by: 1. Delivering a culturally diverse and responsive curriculum that affirms our scholars with engaging literature and exposure to the broader community. 2. Serving families and children who lack access to high quality summer learning and enrichment opportunities and infusing every day with joy and Freedom School magic. 3. Addressing the whole child by supporting their academic, social, emotional and basic needs. 4. Offering a workforce development opportunity for college students that positions them to increase social capital and instills skills and competencies that will make them competitive in the professional marketplace. 5. Collaborating with diverse community stakeholders who contribute to and benefit from the partnerships. 6. Advocating relentlessly for our scholars by focusing on educational equity and on the root causes of academic achievement gaps.
About This Cause
Freedom Schools are summer opportunities that build children’s literacy and social-emotional skills and serve children who most need and can least afford summer learning opportunities. Evidence shows that, by the end of third grade, lower income children are typically 2 to 3 years behind in reading and math, due in large part to summer learning loss. To combat that loss, Freedom School Partners (FSP) ensures that our most vulnerable children have access to a rich summer learning experience in which they maintain or gain reading ability. Led by college student interns, Freedom Schools strengthen children’s literacy skills, develop social-emotional skills they need to make good decisions and connect children to a broader community that believes in and advocates for them. In addition, FSP engages parents as partners to support scholars' success during the unique six-week program.
