To ensure every student in Hillsborough County receives an outstanding
public education that equips them for a fulfilling future.

Mission

pillars

  • Unlocking
    Opportunities
    For Students

    From preschool through high school, we provide essential supplies, support and scholarships that empower students to achieve possibilities beyond their imaginations.

  • Strengthening
    Public Schools

    Working creatively and collaboratively, we develop programs and advocate for policies that ensure every public school in the district has access to the same resources to become A-graded schools.

  • Investing
    in Teachers

    We remove financial barriers to improve teachers’ classrooms and careers by providing free supplies, grants and professional development that state funding doesn’t cover.


OUR VISION

Hillsborough County Public Schools is one of the best places to learn and teach — where 100% of students
graduate with the ability to pursue anything they can dream.

Core

beliefs

  • We Put Students And Teachers First

    Because education is key to a prosperous community, we put the needs of students and teachers above all else. Every decision we make and action we take is to improve their lives and livelihoods, so our entire community can thrive.

  • We Work Collaboratively

    We can do more together than any of us can do alone. We partner with Hillsborough County Public Schools, families and the community to multiply our contributions and maximize our impact for students and their futures.

  • We Relentlessly Pursue Equity

    We believe every student deserves access to an outstanding public education that opens doors to a lifetime of opportunity. We prioritize efforts that level the playing field, so what the highest-resourced schools have is what everyone has.

  • We Approach Challenges Creatively

    We view problems as possibilities to transform lives through public education. Using data to drive our decisions, we test new ideas and scale proven results to benefit our children and community.

  • We Uplift Each Other

    We view our work as a calling and a privilege. Because we share a profound sense of accountability and responsibility to fulfill our mission, we support our teammates, express gratitude and celebrate accomplishments. Because when one of us succeeds, we all succeed.
