Friends of Educational Excellence: Helping Students Succeed

Friends of Educational Excellence (FREE) Partnerships support community partnerships in Rochester public schools to help students succeed in school.  By supporting community organizations partnering with schools, FREE Partnerships helps to build a stronger Rochester, NY community.

FREE Partnerships:

• Helps students succeed in school
• Builds a stronger Rochester community

FREE Partnerships is a collaboration of community organizations that partner with schools to provide in-school volunteers who assist students to succeed in school.  FREE Partnerships provides services to these community organizations so they are more effective and helps to create new community partnerships with schools that have unmet needs.

FREE Partnerships is an official Rochester City School District community partner with a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the District to provide support for city schools.
