"An investment in knowledge pays the best interest" – Benjamin Franklin
As the birthplace of public education in the nation, Boston Public Schools is committed to transforming the lives of children throughout their system of innovative, welcoming schools.

Their goal is to ensure that every child has access to great teachers and great school leaders. BPS is focused on ensuring every school is strengthening teaching and school leadership, replicating success and turning around low-performing schools, deepening partnerships with parents, students, and the community and redesigning district services for effectiveness, efficiency, and equity.
