We believe that EVERY CHILD is of great worth and has the desire and potential to succeed.
We believe that LONG-TERM, 24/7 RELATIONSHIPS with caring adults have proven positive outcomes in the lives of our urban youth.
We believe a HOLISTIC approach is essential for a strong and healthy future for our youth.
We believe that FULL-TIME, SALARIED TEACHER-MENTORS WHO COME FROM SIMILAR BACKGROUNDS as the students can have a positive influence and make all the difference.
We believe that the SERVANT LEADERSHIP, creating a culture of selflessness and service, is the foundation for leadership.
We believe in the intrinsic DIGNITY of every person and act accordingly.
We believe that COLLABORATION yields the best long-term results, acknowledging that the complex work in our urban centers cannot be done single-handedly.
Elevate Dallas serves families of Thomas Jefferson High School and Medrano Middle school as well as the overall West Dallas community. In October 2019, Elevate Dallas' vans were completely destroyed along with the two schools it served, Thomas Jefferson High School and Carry Middle School. Our students and families are resilient, and we continue to walk alongside them as they continue to make strides in making plans for their future.
Building long-term, life-changing relationships with urban youth, equipping them to thrive and contribute to their community.
