education is a community effort

We know that if we give our all and ask the same of our students, we can change the world. One graduate at a time.

FINDLEY ELEMENTARY

Located on Des Moines' northeast side, Findley Elementary School serves over 340 kindergarten to fifth grade students.

HARDING MIDDLE

Our Findley Elementary students matriculate into Harding Middle, one of Iowa's largest and most diverse middle schools. All Harding students benefit from our programing.

KING COHORT GRADUATES

Through our original cohort model, we adopted the first grade class at Des Moines' King Elementary School in 2006. These students graduated from high school in spring 2018.

WHAT WE DO
CONTACT

We recognize the transformational impact incremental changes can make on a student’s life. Partnering with entire schools, we work to increase high school graduation and postsecondary readiness rates while engaging community partnerships to uplift students, families, and whole neighborhoods.
