• We Put Youth First – The youth we serve come first.
  Always. In everything. That means we wake up thinking of ways we can serve
  youth even better and get the highest impact out of every dollar that we
  spend. It means Educate! doesn’t own a single vehicle, because we’d rather
  take the bus if it means one more student can participate. It means making
  every decision like the future depends on it — because if we get our way,
  it does.
• We Are Always
  Learning – When you
  work at Educate!, educating yourself is part of your job too. We encourage
  every employee to find the best book on management; share the latest
  article on graphic design; bring in your favorite college mentor; or meet
  the researcher pushing the edge of the field. We are always thirsty for
  knowledge and love to share.
• We Only Solve a
  Problem Once – We are
  allergic to band-aids so we love the person who brings the new system to solve
  the problem for good, even problems we haven’t recognized yet.
• We Are Flexible – We thrive on change — we’re
  driving it. We are growing every day, so we have to adapt quickly to meet
  new challenges, and our team keeps up.
• We Exceed
  Expectations – We assume
  we can achieve the impossible because we already have, year after year. We
  want our staff to create your own challenges, ask the toughest questions,
  and dream scary big!
