We’re excited to be named a @BankofAmerica #neighborhoodbuilders in Philadelphia! The funding and leadership training will help us provide transformative educational experiences.
This articulates why we call our school el Centro de Estudiantes - students at the center. Thank you Frankie Bonilla for telling the story so well! education-reimagined.org/pio…
Congrats to all our graduates today!! We can't wait for your next step, and just remember, El Centro will always be right there with you!
Check out this phenomenal story our graduate Sophia Delgado wrote, recorded, and published for @whyy @WHYYThePulse and Philly Audio Diaries! We are so proud of your work Sophia and look forward to hearing your voice on our radio more often!

Just because we're on spring break doesn't mean @bigpicphilly is all quiet on the homefront... Head over to Facebook to check out what's going on at @Vaux_BPHS this week! Their students just achieved a huge milestone - their first RWL interview! teapawt.org/Vaux_BPHS/status/97906…
Spring break is here at El Centro! We wish all of our students and advisors a relaxing and restful break! Can't wait to see you all at the start of next trimester - until then, however....

How can we close the gap between the expectations we have for our graduates, and the evidence we collect about those expectations? Two of the brains behind @bigpiclearning have some great ideas: bit.ly/2FUc6ry

It's so amazing to see just how far students can go with a little help from the right teacher! We are so proud of our alum Chris Mello! The only way to lead is to lead by example! teapawt.org/bigpicphilly/status/95…
We are so proud to announce that @elcentrophilly grad Justin Vazquez has won the #ChrisMello Award for #Leadership at @YearUpPTCP and @PeirceCollege!
