Vision & Mission

Vision

We envision a society where learning is not bound by classroom walls or socioeconomic circumstances. Class Dismissed seeks to empower every learner to read the world as clearly as they read a book — to critically question, imagine, and build with confidence and care. Our vision is a Philippines where education is a shared right, not a private privilege, where the joy of reading opens paths to dignity, awareness, and solidarity among all.

We believe that every child deserves to be both a thinker and a dreamer; that true literacy begins when the learner sees themselves in what they read, and sees the world as something they can change.

Mission

Our mission is to create free and nurturing spaces where learning continues long after class is dismissed. Through afterschool tutoring sessions, writing workshops, and community partnerships, we help children from public schools and working-class neighborhoods grow in confidence and critical understanding.

Class Dismissed promotes literacy as a means of liberation — transforming reading into a collective act of empowerment. We aim to equip learners not just with skills, but with the courage to question, the clarity to understand, and the compassion to uplift. When education becomes a shared effort, knowledge ceases to be a tool of privilege: it becomes a bridge to equity.
