Action = Equity
At TECH Freire we believe that education is the great equalizer and the means by which we can and will unapologetically battle the racial inequity that has plagued our students and families for generations. We believe that action equals equity; therefore, we strive each day to take action. We take action by providing a robust learning experience for students. We take action by ensuring our students are taught the fundamental technology skills necessary to thrive in the 21st century. We take action by educating the whole child; emphasizing the values of non-violence and community through rich extracurricular programming.
At TECH Freire, Action Equals Equity.
