The PEACE Project at Freire Charter School

Description

This is an exciting opportunity for anyone with a passion for reaching out to young people - especially traditionally under-served Philadelphia High School students.

The PEACE Project's mission is to cultivate a new generation of leaders empowered by the skills and social awareness to be active citizens. PEACE accomplishes this by allowing students to design personalized education plans, supporting them with expert coaches, and expanding the "classroom" to include the real world and community.

We are actively seeking volunteer mentors to work with our students. Each mentor will work with 4 students to help them progress on their individual learning plans. The mentor guides and coaches the student as he or she explores his or her interests and prepares for college success. The mentor becomes a part of the student's learning team.
