WE STRIVE FOR COMMITMENT:
We expect that upon acceptance into the program that Parents/Guardians and students will make a long term commitment.

- study skills
- strategies on how to improve grades
- gain knowledge on what it takes to go to college
While in the program, students enjoy exciting field trips to cultural and educational events, including college campus visits. Seventh and eighth grade students are required to participate in a six-week summer academic program. Additionally, high school students are also required to attend the summer program.
