We are an education nonprofit based in the suburbs of Boston, MA. Since our founding in 2017, WPS has offered programs with a focus on fostering educational innovation and opportunity. We advance models of schooling where learning thrives everywhere, in classrooms and beyond; where students and their families are empowered to shape their own educational journeys; and where entire communities contribute to the development of young people.
Schools, community organizations, workplaces and other institutions collaborate to unlock new learning opportunities, recognizing that involvement in education is a shared responsibility.​
​
When education is embedded in the community, students get involved in real-world challenges and discover innovative solutions, finding greater meaning and purpose at school.
​
This dynamic exchange also extends the relevance and impact of community institutions.
