Every child deserves an equal opportunity to learn

Inspired by the belief that every child deserves an equal opportunity to learn, our mission is to provide volunteer tutoring and mentoring to Ravenswood students.

N
early 200 Ravenswood Classroom Partners volunteers work with talented teachers to support the success of students in the Ravenswood City School District, serving communities in East Palo Alto and eastern Menlo Park. Ravenswood schools are located in the heart of Silicon Valley and surrounded by some of the finest public schools in the United States. However, the latest statistics tell a different story about these communities:
  • 89% are low income
  • 60% are English language learners
  • 82% are reading below grade level
  • 88% are below grade level in math
  • ​​44% are homeless or housing insecure

​​RCP supports students facing these challenges. Each dedicated volunteer is a consistent, caring presence in the lives of these children, working weekly in the same classroom with the same students throughout the school year. Our volunteers partner with Ravenswood teachers to help improve academic performance and social-emotional well being of the students.
