“Education is like a game, there are rules to the game. Black children, often time, are not given the rulebook.“
Dr. Tracee Perryman
CEO / CoFounder of Center of Hope Family Services, Author
“I became energized by teaching children how to learn, how to think.”
Dr. Tracee Perryman, CEO/Co-Founder of Center of Hope Family Services, shares her journey and passion for education. Raised in a family deeply rooted in education, with a grandfather who was an educator during Jim Crow and a mother with over 30 years of experience, her work is designed to be an intentional and supplemental approach to education. Her belief in self-reliance and the empowerment of students is reflected in her father’s quote, "You will not depend on another system or structure to feed you education." Despite facing challenges, including being the only Black student in some of her classes, Dr. Perryman's love for learning and teaching has only grown over the years.
“Inequities in funding… creates inequity in access.”
Driven by a desire to create opportunities for every student to feel smart, Dr. Perryman started her work right out of high school, beginning in a church fellowship hall. She believes that education disparities are a social justice issue, inspiring her to pursue higher education to be more effective in her interventions and learning about legislation that impacts education. She discusses barriers to entry in the field, class and cultural differences about how we view choice, and emphasizes the importance of mentor educators to help you refine and elevate your work.
