Partnership Schools is a network of nine urban Catholic schools in New York and Cleveland. Our network is guided by talented teachers and school leaders, and supported by a central team of education, finance, and operational leaders. We believe that great schools are guided by faith and values, grounded in rigorous content, supported by quality professional development, and animated by a clear vision. We are also recognized as a leader in the Catholic school renaissance—a nationwide effort to strengthen and rebuild urban Catholic schools as models of academic rigor and transformational change for the communities, students, and families they serve.For more than twenty years, the Partnership has raised and invested over $200 million in urban Catholic schools. Today, as a School Management Organization (SMO), the Partnership is intensifying its efforts to break the cycle of poverty and close the achievement gap across our network schools.OUR SCHOOLS• The Partnership currently serves 2,058 students across the network• 65% of our students are a part of the free & reduced lunch program• 96% of our students are Black or Latino• 55% of the students are Catholic• 80% of our families are on a scholarshipThe nine Partnership schools include:• Mt.
