SANKOFA FREEDOM ACADEMY CHARTER SCHOOL - Pennsylvania School District

About School District: Sankofa Freedom Academy is a college preparatory community based K-12 freedom school that empowers its students to take their rightful places in the world as educators, leaders and agents of change. Sankofa Freedom Academy (SFA) builds on the Philadelphia Freedom School Junior Servant Leader model to establish a public charter school that brings together high school servant leader scholars with elementary school scholar activists to increase literacy and numeracy levels throughout the community, promote respect for scholarship, servant leadership, conflict resolution, personal, social, and environmental responsibility. Using the essential components of the Philadelphia Freedom School model, SFA engenders in its students, staff, and community a love for learning, respect for scholarship, pride in heritage and a commitment to personal and societal transformation. At Sankofa, learning is done in a safe family oriented setting, where children and adults of all ages will teach and learn from one another. By operationalizing the adage, “each one / teach one”, Sankofa Freedom builds inter-generational learning communities in which each and every person is responsible to learn in order to teach, and teach in order to build a better world.
