Shift Education

Transforming Education in Guilford County

Shift Education, known as shift_ed, began as a grassroots movement fueled by community activism in Guilford County. This initiative was born from the collective vision of students, parents, and local leaders who sought to create a comprehensive education continuum that supports learners from birth to career. Over the years, shift_ed has evolved, focusing on equity and strategic partnerships to drive success for students, families, and the community.

A Legacy of Impact

In 2013, key stakeholders, including the Guilford Education Alliance and Guilford County Schools, united to reshape the educational landscape. Their efforts culminated in a historic fundraising campaign that raised over $25 million, leading to the establishment of the Say Yes to Education chapter in Guilford County. This initiative has since provided invaluable support to students, enabling them to secure millions in scholarships to prestigious colleges nationwide.

Comprehensive Support Services

Shift_ed offers a range of services designed to meet the diverse needs of students at every educational stage. From tutoring for K-8 students to career exploration for middle schoolers, and college application assistance for high schoolers, the organization ensures that every student has the resources they need to succeed. In response to the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, shift_ed expanded its services, introducing additional tutoring and innovative programs to support students' learning journeys.
