Achievers
Achievers is an academic achievement and career development program for Black and Latino students in middle school and high school. During the 2025–2026 school year, we had seven scholarship recipients and awarded $13,500 in scholarships.
One of the key components of the Achievers program is the week-long spring break college tour. Students have the opportunity to visit colleges and universities, explore campus life, and gain valuable knowledge that helps inform their future college decisions.
Another goal of the program is to prepare students for the world of work. Achievers participate in several workplace tours, where they are exposed to different career pathways and learn about the skills most desired by today’s employers. Through academic enrichment, career exploration, and college preparation, the Achievers program continues to make a lasting impact on the lives of students.
