Open School is an innovative education program for amazing kids who need something different than traditional school. We know which kids are most likely to drop out. We find them and surround them with what they need to graduate and get ahead: academics, equity, and advocacy. Learn more about our programs.
As per the governor's requirements for safe reentry and as many of our major comprehensive districts are making the shift to online school, we are following suit. Open School East will be remote for at least the first semester of learning.
The education system has under-served Black and Brown students for generations.
We're investing in the support that students need so they can rise to achieve their goals. Join us.
