The Public Education from the Home to the Doctorate (PHD) philosophy is simply- the idea that all underprivileged children should receive the opportunity for post secondary education along with the necessary strategic guidance integrated into a child’s learning environment. These innovative strategies begin with parental support at home and continue into programming crafted by PHD, introduced as early as kindergarten. The PHD program was first implemented as a 21st Century Community Learning Center in the South Texas poverty-stricken school district of San Benito, a town of about 25,000 residents. The PHD program began as an after school and adult education program for the entire community. PHD Vision focused on instilling a post secondary educational vision in grades K-12 and offered adult programs in GED, ESL (English as a Second Language), and various career planning activities, allowing for the resumption of education.
