Achievement First is a growing network of non-profit, high-performing, college-preparatory, K to 12 public charter schools in Connecticut, New York and Rhode Island. The mission of Achievement First is to deliver on the promise of equal educational opportunity for all of America's children. We believe that all children, regardless of race or economic status, can succeed if they have access to a great education. Achievement First schools provide all of our students with the academic and character skills they need to graduate from top colleges, to succeed in a competitive world and to serve as the next generation of leaders in our communities.
We believe a college degree should be within reach for every young person in this nation. We start and manage outstanding urban public charter schools that close the opportunity gap and prepare students from economically disadvantaged communities to graduate from college.
Mastery Charter Schools and Mastery Schools of Camden form a non-profit school network of charter, turnaround and renaissance schools in Philadelphia, PA and Camden, NJ, serving over 14,000 students in grades K-12. Our mission is to ensure all students learn the academic and personal skills they need to be truly prepared for postsecondary success and able to pursue their dreams.
Mastery is nationally recognized for its ability to turn around failing neighborhood schools and to drive dramatic student achievement gains. In our turnaround schools, test scores have increased, on average, more than 40 percentage points per grade and subject after three years, violence decreased by 80% and student turnover dropped by one-third.
Mastery schools are joyful, authentic communities where students learn how to think critically and act independently so they are truly prepared for post-secondary success.
