Describe the Organization's Mission:
Part 3 - Line 1
PARAMOUNT SCHOOLS OF EXCELLENCE'S FOUR CAMPUSES EXIST TO EDUCATE K-8 GRADE STUDENTS IN AN INNOVATIVE ENVIRONMENT THAT INSTILLS HIGH EXPECTATIONS FOR SUCCESS. ESTABLISHED IN 2010, PARAMOUNT ACCOMPLISHES ITS MISSION THROUGH AN EMPHASIS ON RIGOROUS ACADEMICS, TECHNOLOGY, AND THE ENVIRONMENT. AUTHORIZED BY THE MAYOR'S OFFICE OF EDUCATION INNOVATION, THE FREE PUBLIC CHARTER SCHOOLS CURRENTLY SERVE 1,400 STUDENTS, OF WHICH 79% ARE FROM HOUSEHOLDS AT OR BELOW THE POVERTY LEVEL. RISK FACTORS FOR PARAMOUNT STUDENTS INCLUDE LACK OF SOCIAL AND SCHOOL READINESS, LANGUAGE BARRIERS, UNDERPERFORMING ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT LEVELS, AND LOW PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT. THEREFORE, IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE SCHOOL CONTINUALLY FIND WAYS TO REMOVE OBSTACLES THAT HAMPER EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT, SO PARAMOUNT'S STUDENTS REACH THEIR FULL POTENTIAL.
