I have traveled across the nation, and you are one of the most inspiring teams I have ever witnessed. North Star is a mecca of hope and college promise for our children.

We are at an amazing moment – the schools of children, families, and communities that have been written off for generations are now at the center of our public policy and debate.

Will Austin

Chief Operating Officer

Uncommon Boston

We do this work because we know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that all students can get to and through college.
