Project CORE will operate as a two-year intensive program designed to arm underserved students
with a fully integrated set of foundational skills and knowledge to prepare them for success in life,
career and further education. CORE will accomplish these goals by establishing:
- A Fully-Integrated Cultural Tools and Knowledge for a Global World Curriculum
- Intensive Mentor-Based Support for Higher-Level Learning
- Mastery of Core Skills and Knowledge through Guided Project-Based Learning
- The Inculcation of a Growth-through-Perseverance Mindset in Students
We believe that dramatic improvement in learning can occur through the application of these
principles in a high-demand/high support educational milieu.
We will not solve our educational problems by finding new
and more efficient ways of delivering information. Quality
education can occur only by establishing clear standards for
what we believe students should know and do, and by
sustaining instruction and support until students gain mastery
of the requisite knowledge and skills. There are no shortcuts.
