The Statistics

Speak For Themselves

Especially in Massachusetts’ knowledge-based economy, a postsecondary credential is necessary for a life of opportunity and choice. However in Massachusetts, only 18% of students from low-income communities are expected to obtain a college degree within six years of high school graduation, while their peers from high-income families are expected to graduate at rates about four times that. This is not for lack of ambition or talent, but for lack of opportunity and support.

We are excited to offer our engaging program to fit the changing needs of students and schools.

Meet Amanda

“As early as 4th grade, decisions were already being made about whether I was college material or not. Doors opened to me wouldn’t be opened to my peers. I work to ensure all students can choose the postsecondary path of their choice – not a path that was chosen for them.”
