Through quality education and comprehensive wellness services, Safe Passage offers a transformative experience for our students within a loving and supportive environment. Our educational community co-creates learning experiences that support students in developing the character, knowledge, and skills to reach their maximum potential. This cultivates positive and lasting change for themselves, for their families and community, and for Guatemala.
Vision:
Our vision is to catalyze a positive, transformative, and lasting impact by educating and inspiring youth leaders to build an equitable, strong, and just society.
WHO WE ARE
We are a top-rated educational institution, empowering people and advancing progress in a place of great poverty.
Between languages and latitudes, between extreme poverty and extraordinary achievement, there is Safe Passage — serving the community surrounding the largest garbage dump in Central America.
Safe Passage is a Pre-K through 9th grade full-day school with a holistic approach that expands the definition of education. We provide half-day educational support for high school students, tutoring, adult education and educational enrichment. In addition, we provide nutrition, social services, and career guidance.
We mitigate underlying factors that contribute to poor educational outcomes by bringing hope, education, and opportunity to the children and families through a combination of innovative and evidence-based curriculum, health, and nutritional services.
