Our Mission: Living Classrooms Foundation strengthens communities and inspires young people to achieve their potential through hands-on education and job training, using urban, natural, and maritime resources as “living classrooms.”
Living Classrooms Foundation is a Baltimore-Washington based non-profit educational organization with a distinctive competency in experiential learning—literally learning by direct experience, or what we call “learning by doing.” We apply our skill in three program areas:
•Educating students through our own charter school, through after-school and supplemental education programs, and through environmental experiences, with special emphasis on serving students who live in high-risk environments
•Eliminating barriers to success for young adults and families through community development, workforce preparation, and life skills training
•Educating the general public, and students in particular, about the significance of the region's maritime heritage and its role in shaping who we are as a community and nation
