Promise Schools company history timeline

2014

In 2014, Mayor Robert Garcia made the City of Long Beach a signatory to the promise program, expanding internships for local students and adding more opportunities for preschool education throughout the city.

Having the mayor add the city as a promise partner in 2014 made the program even more unique among peer programs, according to Steinhauser, who called Garcia “the education mayor.”

2017

In November 2017, Governor Rick Snyder signed a bi-partisan bill expanding the number of Promise Zones from 10 to 15.

2019

After researching the efficacy of the tuition assistance provided under the Promise, the Board of Directors decided to phase out this component of the program beginning in 2019.
