TECH Freire and Freire High students brought the energy (and a little friendly competition) to Puttshack this week!

Nearly all of our senior Experienceship students from TECH Freire and Freire High came together for a hands-on networking event—where they didn’t just learn about networking, they practiced it in real time. From building confidence to making meaningful connections, students showed up ready, and even competed for prizes based on their networking skills.

This experience would not have been possible without the incredible mentors from the Junto 8 group through Leadership PHL, who led small groups and shared their expertise. Thank you to:

Jasmine Tate-Supplee (Shafir’s Journey)
Charlene Chick (Jefferson Health Plans)
Eric Nash (PECO)
Matt Baker (Vanguard)
Wanda Richards (PNC)
Carl Randolph (Philadelphia Fire Department)
Eli Kulp (High Street Hospitality Group)
Paula Solomon (CB Community Schools)

We’re so grateful for their time, mentorship, and commitment to our students’ growth. Experiences like this are exactly what prepare our students for success beyond high school.

Big smiles and big wins for Freire High softball!

Our 10th graders Sa’rai, Makayla, and Ameanah visited the Phillies stadium to receive free gear and equipment for the upcoming season and got the unforgettable experience of spending time inside the clubhouse. From exploring behind the scenes to unboxing their new equipment, the excitement for the season ahead is real. Thank you for supporting our athletes, Philadelphia Phillies!

Breathe fire, Dragons!
