Based on the principles of economic empowerment and responsible management of a personalized wealth plan, our wealth literacy program, developed by Mozella Perry Ademiluyi and Charlene Day, develops the skills of financial independence in each of our students, allowing them to invest in whatever future they see for themselves.

Designed in partnership with Dr. Cindy Acker and Sarah McArthur LeValley, we begin from a place of fostering self-awareness and compassion within the students before exploring how our actions can contribute to disrupting systemic racism in our world.

Through analyzing different models of government around the world, students gain a foundational understanding of how human societies organize themselves, the avenues of power used by people to access influential positions, and where they as young adults fit into the broader picture of their own country as essential and responsible citizens.

As students are overwhelmed by a barrage of information from the outside world, scientific literacy helps them to separate the fact from fiction, understand how science can be twisted to support unjust causes, and come to their own conclusions about scientific claims made in popular culture.
