Financial Transparency

Brooke closes the achievement gap at 25% less per student than Boston Public Schools.

We are committed to excellent education not just for Brooke scholars, but for all low-income urban students across the country. By carefully controlling our cost per scholar, we have designed a model that is replicable and scalable.

Our controlled costs prove that our results are based on excellent teaching – not on pumping more dollars in the door. The same tax dollars that result in such dismal educational outcomes for students in traditional Boston Public Schools could instead fund the remarkable achievements of Brooke scholars. Once up and running, the Brooke network will be self-sustaining.

But we need your help to get there.

Unlike traditional public schools, charter schools receive no financial support for their facilities expenses. As we grow, we will need to buy new buildings to house our scholars. We will also need to make renovations to those buildings to make them ready for learning. We will rely on private dollars to support these facilities costs. Donate now to support our growth.
