NO ONE ELSE IS DOING THIS WORK IN JACKSONVILLE. ELEVATE JACKSONVILLE UNIQUELY POSITIONS OUR TEACHER/MENTORS TO BUILD RELATIONSHIPS WITH STUDENTS IN VARIOUS CONTEXTS. CORE CURRICULUM CLASSES TEACH KNOWLEDGE, ELEVATE CLASSES TEACH WISDOM. OUR ACCREDITED ELECTIVE COURSE ("ELEVATE") TEACHES OUR 13 CHARACTER QUALITIES & LIFE SKILLS. OUR STUDENTS ALSO SPEND TIME WITH THE SAME TEACHER/MENTORS ON WEEKENDS, AFTER-SCHOOL, AND DURING OUR SUMMER CAMPS. HENCE, BY ENGAGING OUR STUDENTS ALL DAY, EVERY DAY, AND PROVIDING MENTORING (ONE-ON-ONE AND SMALL GROUP), AS WELL AS LARGE GROUP ACTIVITIES, WE ENTER THEIR WORLD IN A TRUSTING, LIFE-CHANGING APPROACH.
