MOMS ON A MISSION COALITION:
This Summer, We are on a Mission to Help 5,000 Young Baltimore Boys Pursue STEM and Achieve Math Mastery Even if They Have Fallen Behind 1-3 Years in School.
#MOMS-CARE
WHY FOCUS ON BLACK BOYS?
Crisis in Public Schools: Educating Black Boys:
In response to the overwhelming national and state data regarding the underachievement of black boys, Moms on a Mission refuse to do nothing about the "Education to Prison Pipeline".
If Black Boys typically have the lowest test scores, poorest grades and the highest dropout rates, what does that say about their future?

BALTIMORE CITY SCHOOLS
12,500

$21,606
Baltimore City will spend $21,606 per student for educating students. Currently, 93% of third to eight graders lack the ability to do math at grade level.
1.7 Billion
Baltimore City approved school budget of 1.7 billion dollars for 2023/2024. Will large budgets close the gap of education equality?
