Dear Ednovate Community,

Last year, I met Julisa, a senior at South LA College Prep. She's the first in her family to attend college, where she will pursue her passions for neurobiology and astronomy. Her family’s unwavering support and Julisa’s dedication, combined with Ednovate’s Whole Child approach and college-prep programming, helped her achieve something extraordinary, she’s heading to Stanford University this fall!

This moment is a huge milestone for her entire family and a powerful example of what Positive Multigenerational Change looks like in action.

Julisa’s journey isn’t an anomaly. Across our network, Ednovate students are thriving, academically, artistically, and as leaders. This year, every senior across all seven of our schools was accepted to a four-year university. They earned more than $70 million in scholarships and were admitted to 350+ colleges. We’re seeing long-term success too. In an independent survey of national alumni, Ednovate’s alumni outperform their peers in earning a living wage, securing strong early-career jobs, and reporting high well-being.

These outcomes don’t happen by chance. They are made possible by thoughtful systems, high-quality instruction, great team members, and the unwavering support of people like you.

Thanks to your partnership, Ednovate has continued to build a high quality and innovative student experience, grounded in our unique Whole Child Report Card. This year alone, we:

Raised student math and reading proficiency by double digits network-wide
Received unanimous approval for all three charter renewals
Saw a 5% increase in enrollment across all schools while the state and local areas are decreasing in enrollment
Launched the Community Schools program across 6 of our campuses

Looking ahead, we’re doubling down what has been working for us for over a decade, our systems and our teamwork. And in the next five years we will be ensuring every graduate not only has a college acceptance but also a career plan and a robust alumni network. We also plan to broaden our impact with the launch of a new book and our AI innovations in the near future. We are excited about what we are building!

To all of our donors, supporters, and champions: thank you. Your belief in our students and mission is the fuel behind every milestone we achieve.

At Ednovate, we believe in building schools that deliver enduring outcomes, not just diplomas, but real pathways to thriving futures. Together, we’re creating lasting, generational change.
