All youth deserve quality schools designed to educate and empower them with greater access to college completion, career success, and secure lives. Philadelphia Middle College Foundation (PMCF) launched in 2023 to create an early/middle college charter school offering innovative secondary education that inspires youth to thrive. The school will provide step-by-step pathways to earn an associate’s degree or industry certifications alongside a high school diploma, focusing on high-demand industries like healthcare and technology. PMCF’s core philosophy is equity through education, ensuring a jump-start into postsecondary life.
