Student U

Student U is a nonprofit dedicated to creating a more equitable education system, so that every student in Durham can succeed. We are students, families, and educators cultivating joy and academic excellence in learning communities so all students thrive in Durham and beyond. 

We support students and their families inside and outside of school, helping them overcome challenges to reach college graduation. At the same time, we work to improve the public education system by sharing successful strategies with schools and educators and building a strong community at The W.G. Pearson Center, aiming for a better future for our youth.
