EDUCATIONAL EQUITY
United Way is focused on supporting the whole child and aims to ensure that all children have a great start in life, are supported in school and in their community, are reading on grade level, and graduate high school on time – ready for college or career.
THE BASICS
Children’s brains grow the most during the first three years of life, and simple, daily, positive interactions can help give them a great start in life. The Basics Chattahoochee Valley shares five Basics Principles in our community to enhance children’s social, emotional, and cognitive development from birth to age three and beyond.
COMMUNITY SCHOOLS UNITED
Community Schools United is a cross-cutting, equity-based strategy committed to transforming schools to be centers for creating neighborhoods where the strategy, schools, students, families, and community thrive as a unit to achieve student success. Community Schools work to address each school’s unique opportunities, assets, and priorities, all to create positive, sustainable, and transformational impact.
An average of 70% of students participating in community schools programming experienced growth in core subject areas.
