Educate South
|
As an institution of higher education, Palo Alto College is deeply committed to eradicating poverty through the transformational power of education. Educate South is a community effort led by Palo Alto College focused on beginning educational awareness at the earliest years by building public and private partnerships that create and sustain a college-going culture in south Bexar County.
Our Guiding Principles
In order to fully develop the potential of our community’s children, Educate South embraces the fact that education starts at birth. Through three phases impacting children of all ages – from newborn through high school – Palo Alto College is committed to building a college-going culture in our community through existing programing and developing new and innovative ideas.
|
ExposureThe exposure phase seeks to introduce families and their children - from the time they are newborns - to a college-going mindset and establish an affiliation. |
ExplorationThis phase helps children become familiar with the many opportunities and resources available in college. |
ExperienceThe experience phase encompasses early access to college education and students' transitions after graduation. |
