Real Success From Real Students

– Elias

“Restore Education helped me finish my GED, improve my English, and learn how to use the computer. I completed the administrative assistant training program and learned so much. They also helped me prepare for college and now I am in my second year of college working towards my degree.”

Restoring Potential Through Education

Postsecondary credentials are key to family-supporting wages and improving the economic health of our community. Yet, right now in San Antonio, 1 in 4 adults is without a high school diploma. Some students leave school to support their families, some face homelessness, many are young parents, and still others face past trauma. At Restore Education, we believe that no matter the circumstance, everyone deserves the opportunity to improve their lives through education. Why shouldn’t a student go forward to college and position their families to benefit from the opportunities that are afforded anyone who is willing to work as hard as they are?  These students with limited resources and life circumstances negotiate a very hard pathway and make tough choices to advance their education for themselves and those in their family that follow. We believe they deserve partners in the community to open these doors and put them on the most effective pathway to realizing their potential.

Increasing High School Equivalency:Students who earn an HSE increase earnings by $6,000 on average in the first year alone. Imagine the impact that can have for a family over a lifetime. Restore Education is the only place in Bexar County that offers individual HSE tutoring in English and Spanish, with flexible hours, college and career-focused curriculum, and exam vouchers. Because of this model, our students achieve the highest HSE completion rates in our region, multiples above the average.
Preparing for in Demand Jobs:Just over half of our students are unemployed, yet top industries here in San Antonio and South Texas are struggling to find qualified workers. Restore Education offers free, on-site workforce training in high-demand fields to bridge this skills gap and increase our students’ immediate earning potential.
Putting College Degrees in Reach:
Over the course of their lifetime, college graduates can earn over one million dollars more than those with just a high school diploma or HSE. Restore Education is the only HSE program in our region that offers continued support to its graduates, most of whom are 1st generation college students. This unique and personalized model allows our staff to support students through every step of the college process, from entrance exam prep all the way to graduation.
