Together, we are implementing the community schools model to ensure that every student graduates college ready. P.A.C.E. gives youth the tools to thrive, while also strengthening the legs that support them: parents, family and community. All P.A.C.E. programs and services are free and are open to everyone — especially students, parents and residents of Bayview Hunters Point, the Portola District and Visitacion Valley.

One of the things I love about this job is consistency. At Bret Harte, the predictable nature of who the students’ teacher will be, year in and year out, who the principal is going to be, year in and year out, matters to our community.  For me, the biggest piece is the consistency of high-quality staff. Find the right people, support them, make them feel really good about themselves so they stay here year in and year out. That is especially important for kids who have had inconsistency in their lives. When their school is a consistent element, it’s a much better place for them.
