About us

Underserved children are susceptible to falling two to three years behind in reading in large part because of the cumulative effects of summer learning loss. Freedom School Partners combats that loss by providing a unique six-week summer program that unlocks the long-term potential of children by igniting their passion for reading and learning. Our Mission is to inspire our scholars to love reading and learning, believe in themselves, and create extraordinary futures. We fulfill 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.
