“NewSchools believes that students need increased navigation support to identify their passions and interests, gain exposure to a range of career opportunities, determine the options they’d like to pursue, and have multiple, permeable pathways to get there. The Magnolia Project delivers on that need for a population that is often overlooked: low-income, rural, public middle and high schools.Its program design in pairing both curriculum and experiential learning has the potential to transform students’ college and career pathways.”

“We’ve chosen to fund the Magnolia Project’s programs in Geyserville because of the innovative design, commitment to equitable career technical education (CTE) courses for all students, especially low-income students, and their documented track record of success. The Magnolia Project team is deeply knowledgeable, competent, organized, and most importantly, passionate about what they do.”

Can you water some magnolias?

We’re named after the magnolia flower, one of the only flowers that blooms consistently across varied climates and soil conditions.

When students are supported and prepared to pursue their next phase in life, they bloom wherever they take root – and their families, communities, and local economies flourish around them as well.
