Taking our goals of education reform to the next level, the Providence Effect would like to introduce our next initiative, Teach America’s Children.
We are excited to put into play a hands-on and interactive program to improve the education options for underserved students despite existing poverty barriers. To hone our focus as we get the multitude of factors involved in this process in place, we will begin focusing our efforts on Chicago area students and their families.
We believe:
• Every child deserves a quality education.
• Parents and students deserve choices in order to ensure a better quality of life.
• Every child should have the opportunity to graduate from high school and college.
• A good education is the vehicle out of poverty.
• Parents and students are powerful and can successfully demand educational quality.
• Low-income students are capable of succeeding in school and accomplishing great things.
Stay tuned for the launch of our web page and our Facebook page. Both will offer tips, tools and information about the Teach America’s Children programs in the Chicago area.
We look forward to interacting with Chicago’s parents, students and educators to rebuild the priority system in our schools and give our kids a real chance at a great future.
