We are a student-focused organization. We are dedicated to providing a safe environment where our students can hone their academic skills. We focus on self-achievement; students work with their instructors to identify the skills they want to strengthen and create goals to obtain those skills. 

We are a community-centered organization. We work with community partners to ensure our students have access to the resources they need. 

As a team, we collaborate to ensure the best delivery of our program. Together, we work as a team to pilot new programs, support each other in our roles, and create new ways to help our students succeed. 

We are empathetic to student needs. We approach students with empathy and compassion wherever they are in their educational journey, and where they want to be/go. We don’t choose paths for our students but allow them to explore careers, college, and trades. 

 As a small, nonprofit organization, we are able to be adaptable and flexible to the needs of the community. We take into consideration the variables and possible obstacles that affect our students’ lives including individual learning styles, providing class schedules to accommodate family and work responsibilities, and access to wraparound resources. 

We serve all students regardless of learning ability, age, gender identity, or socioeconomic status. We put forth the same effort to every student to help them meet their individual needs. Our students come from all walks of life and we value their respective cultures, diverse needs, and perspectives.
