Primary School Jobs

Primary School Overview

We are creating a new school model that brings together all of the adults in a childs life, including parents, educators, and medical and mental health providers, starting from a very early age. Our aim is that children and families most impacted by systemic poverty and racism receive the support they deserve to be well, learn, and thrive. Three key components make up our unique approach: We start early: We start working with parents and enroll children into our program as early as birth to reach them at their most critical stage in development. We work with - not around - families: We know th...at parents and caregivers are the most important people in a childs life. We partner with them to enhance the education and health of their children. We integrate multiple systems to serve the whole child: Our unique model unites health care and education, building a multi-disciplinary team and holistic system of care around a childs full needs. Our ultimate goal is to create a game-changing system of care for children that can be replicated across the country. To that end, we are building a model that can be effectively implemented in diverse communities and sustained on public funding. In 2019, we will both expand our student and family population at our flagship East Palo Alto site and pursue opening our next site in the Bay Area. More
