| IRS990/Desc | 0 | The initial step in School the World's long term community-based strategy is infrastructure; the construction of a cement school building. This quality learning environment is the result of a strategic partnership with local government in Guatemala, Honduras and Panama as well as a five-year commitment between the community and School the World. This collaboration at the initial stage is vital for creating sustainable change. School the World requires that local government provide 50% of the construction materials as an indication of their support for education in the region. Community members donate the land and their labor to assist with the construction. As an organization, we raise funds from corporate sponsors, individual donors, and our Global Citizenship Program to provide the remaining 50% required for construction costs. In 2019, School the World built 21 new schools serving 2,574 children in Guatemala and Honduras. Part of our infrastructure strategy also includes playgrounds to support Social Emotional Learning (SEL). Play also serves as a tool for deconstructing traditional gender roles that remain prevalent in these regions. In 2019, we successfully added 14 playgrounds to new or existing schools, often providing children with their first opportunity to play. In conjunction with the construction of a playground, we train parents on the importance of play for both social and motor development. |

| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc | 0 | School the World's Books and Learning Resource Program includes both our Teacher Training Program and the implementation of classroom libraries in partnership with the community parents. Our Teacher Training Program focuses on child-centric teaching, early grade skill development, and Social Emotional Learning (SEL) as well as overall classroom management. Teachers are provided with two years of training, conducted in monthly group settings. To date, 392 teachers have completed this training program. Of which 69 new teachers enrolled in 2019. This program has stimulated teachers' attentiveness to improving their teaching strategies as well as creating more interactive lessons to increase student engagement. Trainings are separated between pre-primary and primary school to ensure material is age and developmentally appropriate. A significant part of our commitment to the communities is our Parent Empowerment Trainings. Through this relationship, we build a partnership with the parents focused on classroom libraries and an annual supply of new, culturally-relevant books. For five years, we add to each classroom library through a co-investment strategy with the parents. We believe that deeply engaging the parents in the success of their child's literacy and the school is critical for educational change. In conjunction with the parents, we purchased and supplied 4,890 books (totaling 29,758 books to date). 84 new classroom libraries were built in 2019, totaling 433 active libraries to date. |

| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc | 0 | School the World's Global Citizenship Program includes our High School Student Service Learning Program (SSL) and Corporate Sponsorship & Service Program. Our SSL Program is a unique opportunity for U.S. high school and college students to participate in a week-long international service and culturally-rich experience in Guatemala. In 2019, 204 students committed to funding and participating in the construction of 9 schools and 8 playgrounds. These student groups fund 50% of the construction costs in partnership with local government officials who pay the other 50%, as mentioned above. Collectively, these groups also fund a significant portion of our on-the-ground programming. This includes teacher training, parent empowerment programs and the distribution of learning materials and books. Prior to embarking on this life-changing experience, students commit to preparatory seminars focused on fundraising tactics, global citizenship, and the history and culture of the region. While in Guatemala, students develop an understanding of the complexity within international education, extreme poverty, and gender discrimination, returning with a renewed sense of gratitude and empathy. Our Corporate Service Program provides companies and their employees with an un-matched team-building and networking opportunity. The logistics of the experience are structured similarly to the student program In 2019, 23 employees from 4 companies funded and built 1 school and 1 playground in rural Guatemala. |
