Mission

Our mission is to reduce and eliminate non-academic barriers to learning for our students. We understand non-academic barriers to include circumstances such as economic insecurity, lack of access to physical and mental health care, limited opportunity for academic enrichment and social and emotional development, family and community instability, truancy, and a host of other situations that impede a student's ability to learn and perform in the classroom.

We will do whatever it takes to meet the needs and advocate for our students, their families, and our community.
