Our schools are designed to combat widespread student underperformance typically seen within severely resource-constrained Tanzanian schools.
It is our promise to our students and their parents that Silverleaf students will not leave school without full mastery of the basic skills of writing, reading and math, while also being prepared for a world where critical thinking, team collaboration, and entrepreneurship are paramount.
