Peacekey’s mission is to enable communities to create powerful charter schools with academic excellence, arts, and athletics built upon the principles of authenticity, connection and engaged learning in an environment where every student feels safe, loved, and celebrated.
Description:
Peacekey provides professional support and expertise so that communities can create small, safe schools unlike any other, based on the principles of engagement, authenticity, and connection. Our philosophy is that schools work best when they are built and supported by their community. We believe in the power of community to effectively run their own school autonomously. Peacekey will provide financial and organizational support as well as needed expertise in the development and operation of safe schools that value connection, authenticity, and engaged learning. Join Peacekey's mission to reshape the educational landscape and help create schools with values and students with purpose. Peacekey is a legal 501c3 and all donations to Peacekey go directly to help our schools succeed. Peacekey's first joint-venture: West County Community High School just completed its first year.
History:
Peacekey was founded by Gary Einhorn and consisted of educators and visionaries who wanted to create a new paradigm for education. They developed a blueprint for schools and worked with a group of Parents in Richmond, CA to win a State Grant and write a charter for West County Community High School
