Our Mission Statement
Our mission is to ensure the basic human rights of education to students who are temporarily displaced from public education and to provide non-traditional post-secondary education. We are committed to addressing government and state educational policies and social issues affecting minorities in local communities.
Our original emphasis focused on students who had either been suspended or expelled or have dropped out of Tacoma, Washington, public schools. Since 2012 we have been developing additional criteria regarding workforce development, post-traumatic stress disorder and urban agriculture.
