This #IndependenceDay, we’re asking: what does freedom really mean for students?
The average student-to-counselor ratio is 376:1. That's too high. By 2027, 70% of jobs will require education beyond high school.
Freedom means access to guidance, opportunity, and support.
We’re incredibly grateful to our generous supporters who made The Class possible. The Class is now reaching audiences across the country, elevating conversations around youth mental health, education equity, and the need for more school counselors in public schools. #TheClassPBS
