OUR VISION

Our vision is to provide equitable access to resources and opportunities to scholars and their families.  Through collaboration with parents, school staff and students, we merge the home and school environments to identify the social and emotional factors that play a role in a student’s success or failure.

 

LES’ success is founded in its ability to identify and reveal the root causes of hindrances to students trying to complete their education.  With the execution of our ROAD 2 Mode,  we will serve to guide and prepare students through their own self-efficacy, for life beyond the classroom, beyond unemployment and beyond the “neighborhood”. At-risk students will be empowered to achieve more with the support of L.E.S and our programs.
