What is Community Partnership School?

Founded in 2006, Community Partnership School (CPS) is an innovative, independent elementary school, dedicated to providing an affordable, high-quality education to children from low-wealth, low-income neighborhoods in North Philadelphia.

Located in North Central Philadelphia and serving one of the city’s lowest-income neighborhoods, CPS provides small class sizes; a 7:1 student to teacher ratio; state-of-the-art technology in the classroom; hands-on, inquiry based learning methods; and an enriching After School Program that offers instruction in martial arts, ballet, African dance, music, chess, and more. Now in its fourth year of operation, CPS serves 75 students spanning pre-kindergarten through fourth grade and continues in its mission to shape curious, compassionate, resilient scholars who will be future leaders in their community.
