What They Do

$13.4M in expenses

The primary school is expanding the boundaries of traditional education. Our holistic model weaves together education, health and family support services to ensure underserved children have the system of care they need to lead meaningful and emotionally, mentally and physically healthy lives. The primary school is committed to designing a model that is replicable in communities across the united states and redefines what is possible for underserved children and families. We are investing in design, research, evaluation and dissemination that will allow us to replicate our model and share out learning to others.
