Â鶹ÊÓƵ Providence
Providence has great food, architecture, history, colleges and culture. A magnet for creatives and young people, Providence is committed to improving education for its students. Â鶹ÊÓƵ is proud to work in partnership with the city’s public schools to achieve this goal.
We are working to address the lack of equitable access to educational opportunities. Our Â鶹ÊÓƵ Providence AmeriCorps members partner with teachers and schools to add more support and to help create learning environments where all students can build on their strengths and fully engage in their learning.
Ensuring more Providence students are on track to high school graduation

- 87% of students stayed on track in English Language Arts with a C or higher

Advancing Interpersonal and Workforce Readiness Skills

- 100% of partner principals agree that Â鶹ÊÓƵ has an overall positive impact on their school’s climate
