k - 12教育

通过学习加强社区

Our students 和 faculty collaborate with local schools 和 communities to support children in the foster care system, 研究家庭在低收入家庭学生教育中的作用, 加强儿童福利和早期教育服务之间的伙伴关系.

This commitment to accessibility continues through campus initiatives 和 community 项目 that empower high school 和 college students.
