Our Mission
To provide educational and community services that strengthen Boston's diverse Allston-Brighton neighborhood.
Who We Are
The Presentation School Foundation is a 501(c)(3) corporation
formed to support education in Allston-Brighton, which
we believe is necessary to maintain a stable and family-based
community. The Foundation has built community partnerships
within Allston-Brighton to expand educational
opportunities and programs in support of local families.
Created in 2004, the Foundation Board is composed of residents, local business and community leaders, including local elected officials.
Our Goal
To purchase and convert the former Our Lady of the Presentation School property into a community-based education center and cornerstone of a "Community Campus" in historic Oak Square offering youth and family services in cooperation with the Oak Square YMCA and the Faneuil branch of the Boston Public Library.
Our Blueprint
By encouraging participation from across the community, we seek to create a comprehensive set of coordinated services that will promote family and community stability, including:
• Affordable, full-time, year-round preschool for families
• YMCA after-school programs and summer camps for local youth
• Educational enrichment programs in science, math, reading and writing,
and media literacy for children
• Adult Education programs, including ESL and Civics for immigrants.
