Building Partnerships

icon_headerBuilding Partnerships

Boston is home to many vibrant organizations and individuals working on behalf of the city’s children. The Boston Plan for Excellence has benefited from relationships with many of them. Our deepest partnership, of course, is with the Boston Public Schools. We also have long-lasting relationships with colleagues in other cities who are working to solve similar challenges.

BPE is committed to rallying new partnerships that further our mission of creating a quality school experience for every Boston student. BPE recently convened the Boston Schoolchildren’s Consortium, a partnership of leaders from all sectors that educate Boston children.
