Southside Family Charter School

Southside Family School has its own rhythm. The rhythm you feel is the pulse of our unique community.  Multi-aged groups learning together, independent choice in topics explored, creative arts, restorative practices, peer leadership and one of the most diverse staff in schools across the state.   If it is one thing the last few years have taught us well, it is that we are a resilient community of diverse people, who are filled with hope and advocacy for one another.  

Protecting small class sizes, funding field trips, exploring service learning, and building collaborations with community leaders, activists and business owners - as a charter school we depend on the donations from our supporters to provide these necessary resources for students. Your funding also ensures quality education through additional staff to support students in closing the achievement gap, a necessary staple highlighted through the pandemic.  Mental health continues to be at the forefront of our program offerings, including providing support through daily access to social workers, trained leaders in restorative practices and investment in school based mental health therapy services. 

Past contributions have gone towards a wide range of educational opportunities for Southside students. Donations have supported our travel studies program, which allows our students to travel the country seeing the places and meeting the people that have been fighting for justice in the past and the present.  With this year's annual goal of $100,000 your donation will provide us with the ability to grow our mission and expand our vision of raising up a generation of change makers for social change.  

Thank you for your generosity and inviting others to share the same!
