Providing diverse families with education, resources, and community

GUADALUPE SCHOOL

Personalized education with a focus on literacy

Transforming lives through education.

For over 57 years, Guadalupe School has served our city’s diverse community through educating students, the majority of which are Hispanic and Latino. Guadalupe programs serve children from birth through sixth grade. Through personalized education with a focus on literacy, we set the stage for them to have academic success throughout their lives.

We also teach English classes, citizenship classes and provide career pathway planning to adults. Our school serves the entire family, not just our students. By removing barriers for the immigrant community, we help advocate for their needs and celebrate their heritage.

"I decided to study at Guadalupe because I wanted to improve my English and to learn in a setting with other non-native speakers. Now, I feel comfortable speaking English which allows me to get around town and has given me more independence overall.”

“At Guadalupe School, I have learned that we should respect everyone.”

"Guadalupe School provided a nurturing and supportive environment that allowed me to flourish both academically and personally. The positive experiences and life lessons I gained continue to shape the person I am today."

"Guadalupe helps out new immigrants like me in more ways than you could imagine. I want to thank them for all the support- whether it be my mental health, education, and career. They have been a main component in helping me achieve my goals!”

“Something I’ve learned during my time at Guadalupe is the meaning of friendship and what really matters in life.”

Building bridges and advocating for our students and their families through education

Guadalupe School serves students and families from communities that are often excluded from mainstream social, economic, and educational life. The majority live at or below the poverty level, experiencing insecurities in food, employment, and housing.

English is not the primary language spoken in the home, making success in traditional schools challenging. Through five main educational programs focused on literacy, students build a solid academic foundation, and receive other essential services to keep them focused on learning. Guadalupe School provides a steady and supportive community among our students and families. We believe everyone deserves a chance to live full, successful, and happy lives.
