The Partnership for Appalachian Girls’ Education (PAGE) is an educational nonprofit that is helping create new ladders of opportunity for girls. PAGE is helping adolescent girls learn and connect in empowering new ways through its innovative, place-based learning labs. Girls in PAGE create multi-media projects in our PageLabs: interdisciplinary projects that engage girls with real scientists, artists, and oral historians. They read literature in small reading groups, think creatively and critically, and discover new ways of achieving their dreams.


Please join us in the movement to inspire girls through world-class education, so they can become young leaders in a new Appalachia.

Projects

The Girls’ Stories

Each girl’s learning journey in PAGE begins in our learning lab, where she creates multi-media projects about her life story and her experiences. Girls benefit fromusing new literacy skills, visual media, and digital tools to tell their stories and connect in new ways.

Humanities PageLabs

Girls in grades 8-10 participate in our signature PageLabs. Our humanities Labs integrate the arts, humanities, and digital learning with creative, place-based learning. Participants engage firsthand with the people, places, and stories of Appalachia, with expert guidance from real artists, historians, and documentary photographers.

NEW for 2022: STEM PageLabs

In our new STEM PageLabs, girls in grades 8-10 join communities of girls globally who study, document, and build their worlds through science. Girls learn about astronomy by building telescopes and becoming Appalachian stargazers. They learn about local plants in a pop-up garden classroom and create Illustrated Lab Journals with drawings, photos, and their own questions and observations.
