Mission Graduates is a nonprofit organization that increases the number of K-12 students in San Francisco's Mission District who are prepared for and complete a college education.
We work towards fulfilling our mission through a wide range of after-school support services that serve over 4,800 children, youth and families each year. Our vision is to transform the culture of our neighborhood so that college becomes the expectation for Mission families, rather than the exception.
The Extended Day (ED) is an award-winning after school academic enrichment program serving over 1,100 children K-5 year-round from Marshall Elementary, Bessie Carmichael, Bryant Elementary School, Cleveland Elementary School, Everett Middle School, Flynn Elementary School, Sanchez Elementary School, Thomas Edison Charter Academy, and Alvarado Elementary School. Youth who participate in the Extended Program develop a sense of self-confidence in their ability to learn, to speak their voice and to contribute to their community. The program infuses "college messaging" throughout its curriculum to ensure both children and parents alike begin visualizing early for the college experience. We are seeking after school teachers for all of our Extended Day School sites.
