About the Organization
PRACTICE is a mission-driven business that believes in the power of public schools to build the next generation of urban-educated leaders. We are a B-Corp that partners with principals, teachers, and parents to close the opportunity gap in urban schools. PRACTICE's groundbreaking approach seeks to level the playing field by reimagining what is possible for urban students. Our work has been praised by global leaders, national news outlets, and local politicians.
PRACTICE was founded in 2010 at Cornell University by Karim Abouelnaga, a first-generation public school alumnus who wanted to provide educational opportunities for kids like him. In the decade since, PRACTICE has served more than 20,000 students, created more than 1,000 seasonal jobs, and helped train more than 850 aspiring educators.
Our work includes a rigorous, culturally responsive curriculum taught by Education Champions that look like the kids they serve; customized private tutoring solutions for one-on-one learning taught by our most accomplished Education Champions, and software solutions designed to facilitate greater connectivity among parents and educators and provide real-time insights about what is happening in and out of the classroom to give students the support they need to succeed.
As part of a small, committed team of like-minded professionals, you will have the opportunity to be part of the solution to ensure that a student's zip code doesn't determine their future. This is an opportunity to be at the forefront of creating long-lasting, sustainable change across our K-12 school system.
