SCHOOL YEAR PROGRAMS

We aim to sustain the relationships formed and the academic gains made during the summer through a variety of School Year Program experiences. With the help of community partners and local higher education institutions, we bring students together and keep the enrichment alive.

Students can select different ways to engage to support their academic, social, leadership, or college/career exploration needs. We want students to stay engaged with their positive peer group by attending at least three school year program sessions.

  • Super Saturdays features monthly activities where students explore college and career possibilities, ranging from what it's like to be an engineer, to college visits to community service.

  • Tutoring is our on-demand weekly tutoring that spans across an array of subjects and grade levels throughout the school year.

  • College Bound Program provides year round workshops like ACT Prep, financing college, and the opportunity to spend a week on campus at the University of Cincinnati. For information about College Bound, visit here.
