RÊVE ACADEMY

Rêve Academy was founded in 2010 in North Minneapolis, one of the most economically distressed areas in Minnesota. It's here that the state's academic achievement gap is on full display: compared to their white counterparts, students of color are less likely to graduate from high school or become proficient in reading and math. Our young people of color are leaving school and entering a job market where their unemployment rate is more than 100% higher than that of their white counterparts. In fact, Minnesota's achievement gap and employment gap are among the worst in the country. And yet, the fastest-growing segment of Minnesota's future workforce is students of color... Rêve Academy is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It meets standards of the Charities Review Council and is accredited by AdvancED as an education service provider... At Rêve Academy, we hope to create a place where those young people are the source of innovation, where they inspire..
