Mission
[REFER TO SCHEDULE O FOR CONTINUATION OF MISSION] - TEENSHARP IS A UNIQUE LEARNING COMMUNITY WHERE BLACK, LATINO, AND LOW-INCOME STUDENTS ARE SUPPORTED TO BE SUCCESSFUL, HIGH-ACHIEVING, AND REACHING POTENTIAL. WE DO SO BY PROVIDING A CALIBER OF COLLEGE ADVISING, ACADEMIC INSTRUCTION, LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT, AND TUTORING THAT'S TYPICALLY RESERVED FOR PRIVATE SCHOOL SETTINGS. OUR CORE PROGRAMS (DESCRIBED BELOW) ARE STRIVER, G2C ACADEMY, AND PARENT NETWORK. COMBINED, THEY SPAN THE CALENDAR YEAR. SINCE OUR FOUNDING IN 2009, TEENSHARP HAS SENT MORE THAN 400 YOUNG PEOPLE TO FOUR-YEAR COLLEGES, INCLUDING MIT, CORNELL, YALE, PRINCETON, UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA, MACALESTER, NORTHEASTERN, AND MANY MORE. OUR VISION IS THAT, ONE DAY, THE DIVERSITY OF THOSE WHO OCCUPY THE NATION'S MOST INFLUENTIAL LEADERSHIP POSITIONS AND HIGHLY-SKILLED JOBS WILL REFLECT THE NATION'S RICH DIVERSITY.
