The Crucial role of our Nonprofit Partners

The data are clear. Our public schools continue to struggle in their quest for educational equity, despite endeavoring to narrow the opportunities gap negatively impacting our children living in historically marginalized communities and under-resourced communities, our English language learners and those who are differently abled. Adverse student-teacher ratios, the scarcity of qualified teachers, lack of resources and deteriorating school buildings all detract from educational equity efforts. Our Nonprofit Partners are crucial in moving the needle of success for our kids and their schools. Educationally and community focused nonprofits are doing what our schools simply cannot, especially in regards to children’s social and emotional development.
Volunteer tutors help to reduce the often-large student/teacher ratio in classrooms. By working with those least or most successful, tutors allow the teachers to focus on the majority of students in their classrooms. Volunteers who continue to show up for these students create relationships that reinforce the notion that every child can succeed when given the opportunities and supports they need. Organizations providing volunteer tutors attempt to measure their effect on educational outcomes for their tutees. This is inherently complex and, while they can take some of the credit for improved student outcomes, they are constantly reminded by academicians that the relationships built with students are more important overall for the students than a better score on the next math test.

The need for mentors continues to be enormous. Many students suffering from adverse childhood experiences need a trusted, non-family member adult who will listen and provide emotional support. Research shows that well-conceived mentor programs help children stay in school, graduate and become net-contributors to society.
Restorative Practices are allowing students who have made poor choices the opportunity to avoid the school-to-prison pipeline so prevalent in many communities.
Programs in art, music, dance, theatre, chess, and bridge for example, allow students to develop skills and to succeed, thus paving the way for academic success as well.
Additionally, programs that educate parents and caregivers and provide resources and supports for them to participate in their children’s success are critical to improving educational outcomes.
These and many other programs are delivered by a nonprofit community that is increasingly underfunded. OnePercent for Education facilitates much needed support for proven, equity-driven organizations providing crucial services.
