Higher Achievement closes the achievement gap by offering motivated middle school students from under-served areas an opportunity-rich, nationally recognized year-round educational and high school preparatory program. The program, held after school and during the summer, culminates in top high school placement. Each year, Higher Achievement helps 400 students achieve academic excellence. Grades improve, test scores improve, and academic behaviors are fostered through a program that works.
The organization has received numerous awards, but the most important measure of success is the results achieved by the Higher Achievement scholars themselves. Scholars enter the program with an average GPA of 2.3, and after four years, the GPA jumps to an impressive 3.8.
Higher Achievement is a champion of three principles: talent is everywhere, intellect is built through effort, and opportunities matter.
