Story

At LEAP, we believe that all children and families deserve a high quality, culturally affirming educational experience. 

LEAP strives to support children and families to feel ownership of their education and to have the knowledge resources and skills to advocate for themselves in schools and beyond.


LEAP began in 2008 when volunteers from St. Philip's and St. Luke's Episcopal Churches began providing English-as-a-Second-Language tutoring to adults at Iglesia El Buen Pastor and recruiting other parishioners to join them.

​In 2010, the adults at El Buen Pastor asked the volunteers to shift the their efforts to their school-aged children. For the

next two years, volunteers from St. Philip's, St. Luke's, and Iglesia El Buen Pastor worked together to provide tutoring for children twice/week, focusing specifically on their literacy skills. 

In 2012, LEAP created its first preschool class, created a board of directors and began hiring part-time staff. In 2013, LEAP added a second preschool class, became incorporated as a 501C-3 Nonprofit.


Today, in addition to our tutoring program, LEAP provided a high quality dual language project based preschool to 49 3 and 4yrs old student. Our program offers transportation for children of working families and offers nutritious breakfast and snack to each student. 90% of our students are Latinx and 95% qualify for Medicaid/SNAP/Free & Reduced priced lunch.  

Our program is only possible with the generous support of our community who donate generously to cover the costs of our programing. Families also contribute and volunteer monthly to keep our school running.
