POTENTIAL IMPACT OF EXPANDED AND ALIGNED PARTNERSHIPS

We know that the Pittsburgh community is full of people who are passionate about this city and its public schools. From local nonprofits, cultural institutions and out-of-school time partners, Pittsburgh has so much to offer our students, and while we have many great partners, we could do a better job of leveraging the rich resources in our community to improve student outcomes and experiences It is critical that key constituents are engaged in solving our challenges, so we must make it easier for nonprofits, community partners, civic authorities, and elected officials to partner with the District.

A changing Pittsburgh Public Schools needs to keep up with a changing Pittsburgh. We must reach out to fellow public servants and elected officials to plan together to serve every Pittsburgher better We must be prepared to put the resources and perspectives of our foundation and corporate partners to work for our students to pilot innovative programs, expand offerings and create pathways to good careers for our students.
