The Rochester Education Fellowship
seeks to engage, empower, and mobilize students, families, educators, and community members to create a bold and innovative vision for education in Rochester.
Every Child. Every School. Every Educator.
Every child in Rochester will have access to high-quality schools and highly-effective educators who equip them with the knowledge, skills and character needed for success in college and career, and an active and engaged citizenry.
To that end,
The Rochester Education Fellowship was born from a central question: Can the Rochester community — including those traditionally never afforded the opportunity to participate — coalesce around a shared, energizing vision to transform the education of all Rochester students? We believe so.
To address this urgent need for Rochester’s children and families, Action For A Better Community (ABC), IBERO, Connected Communities, Children’s Institute, Avenue Black Box Theatre, United Negro College Fund, the Max and Marian Farash Charitable Foundation, and other community partners led a search for an exceptional leader – the Rochester Education Fellow – to help Rochester discover a bold and innovative vision for the future of education in Rochester, and to lead an enduring organization to support our community in living out its promise. More information about the selected fellow is forthcoming.
