Welcome to our Schools!
SAI provides elementary and high school education to the La Victoire community. Quality of education is a big issue in Haiti and we're dedicated to delivering a best-in-class (pun intended!) experience for kids. Karina has worked for several years as a teacher in Illinois and has a deep understanding of how to educate children. She's has brought her experience to SAI's schools in setting up curriculum and class schedules.
How we deliver education
We have three core fundamentals when it comes to creating a sustainable, lasting impact for kids in our community.
Teachers
Hiring the best quality teachers we can is the highest priority for SAI's schools. In order to get the best, we pay above-market wages for our teachers so they're motivated to come to SAI and do their best for kids.
Curriculum
Karina's experience as a teacher in Illinois is being leveraged to develop a school curriculum that can have a long-lasting, positive impact for children.
Hands-on Experience
Our students help us with other projects around SAI, such as maintaining our farms. They learn valuable lifetime skills that teach them how to sustain their own families when they grow up.
How Can I Support SAI's Schools?
There are two key expenses that we incur from running our schools.
Teachers
The quality of teachers that we hire for our schools is extremely important. To help attract talent we pay above-market rates for what teachers normally make in the public school system.
Support our teachers with a monthly donation to SAI. Consistent, monthly donations are important so we can pay teachers on-time without any interruption.
School Buildings
Enrollment demand for SAI's schools is strong. In response, we have consistent needs to expand our school infrastructure to accommodate more students and more advanced educations programs, such as music.
Regular donations not only support our teachers, but allow SAI to respond quickly to expansion needs at the schools.
You can help support our teachers and expansion of school infrastructure with your monthly or one-time donation!
