Overview

BRICK Networks operates as a non-profit charter management organization focused on educational equity in high-poverty areas. It runs K-12 charter schools and partners with local organizations to provide wrap-around services that address both academic needs and family barriers like housing, healthcare, and food insecurity. Its approach uses a culturally responsive, adaptive curriculum that engages the whole child and combines STEM, humanities, athletics, and creative expression, plus a two-generation strategy that supports both children and their caregivers; it also leads initiatives such as the South Ward Promise Neighborhood with many partners. The goal is to reduce educational inequity and break cycles of poverty by delivering cradle-to-career support through schools and community partnerships, demonstrated through school turnarounds and substantial grants.
