Kristin Ehrgood y Vadim Nikitine fundaron Sapientis con el propósito de mejorar la calidad de la educación pública de Puerto Rico

Our first program was launched to recruit outstanding university graduates and train them to become school teachers in the public schools

2004

At the end of the 2003-2004 school year, 30 members taught 2,230 students in 28 public schools.

2005

Kristin Ehrgood was selected by Ernst & Young as Entrepreneur of the Year in the Social Responsibility category


2006

We decided to expand our programs to build a stronger and more diverse network of change agents.

Front-Line Educators, Get Involved, Schools on the Move and Youth Leadership programs were created.

We joined forces with the Community Alliance for Educational Excellence (ACAEE, for its Spanish acronym) to improve the schools that serve the Luis Llorens Torres housing complex and Loíza Street communities.

A Memorandum of Understanding was signed with the Puerto Rico Department of Education to train members of the School Councils in the seven schools that serve the Luis Llorens Torres Housing Complex and Loíza Street communities

2007

Through our programs, we have trained approximately 750 people in our leadership model

 

We completed a five year strategic planning process.
