Serving Leaders to Impact Students
Schools That Can Milwaukee serves student-centered school leaders who share our belief that all children can learn and succeed.
We support school principals and their entire leadership teams, including leaders at every career stage — from emerging teacher leaders to established school network executives.
We work with leaders at all types of schools in every sector — Milwaukee Public Schools, independent charter, and private Choice.
Along with our partners at PAVE, we together impact more than 36,500 students through our support of over 300 leaders at 88 schools. More than 85% of students reached by our work come from low-income households. About 95% are youth of color.
