Citizen Schools is building a movement around real-world learning, a pipeline of mentors, and the capacity of schools and communities to deliver a new approach to education - one that will help students develop the skills, mindsets and networks to thrive in the 21st century economy. Mentorship + Real World Learning = Impact Volunteers from the community mentor students and connect learning to potential career pathways through hands-on, project-based and maker-centered learning experiences that position students as producers and problem solvers. Students develop key social emotional and 21st century skills and competencies & build their networks. This year, we will serve over 100,000 students in 28 communities across the United States - re-imagining the way students learn in the classroom, after school, and in our communities - to ensure equal opportunity for all. Mission:?Dedicated to helping all children discover and achieve their dreams.
