PARTNERSHIPS FOR AUTHENTIC
LEARNING AND LEADERSHIP
Our Mission
At Partnerships for Authentic Learning and Leadership, we envision schools where learning is irresistible. We make this possible by helping schools and school districts create their shared vision and provide training and resources to make this vision a reality. Our work focuses on authentic instructional strategies, especially service-learning, an impactful form of project-based learning that helps connect the academic curriculum with local/global community involvement.
How can we help?
We are a non-profit organization founded by educational leaders who envision schools where learning is irresistible. We help make this possible through authentic learning strategies such as service-learning which enhance academic achievement, social-emotional learning, civic engagement, career development, and student empowerment.
