This is not a drill. All kids deserve real opportunities and real hope. Do your part.
At Citizen Schools, we mobilize a volunteer corps of exceptional professionals to get off of the sidelines and into the schools. While talented classroom teachers spend the morning closing the achievement gap, our volunteer Citizen Teachers spend the afternoon closing the opportunity gap. Kids take apprenticeships co-taught by engineers, pastry chefs, writers, photographers, architects, grandmothers, and community leaders. They see outside of school and into a wider world of possibilities and start talking not about why to go to college, but where. Things get better.
