Why Suport First Graduate?
Because access to quality education is an opportunity gap for first-generation students, not an achievement gap, we make a 12-year commitment to each student, starting the summer after sixth grade through college graduation. Currently, we serve 67 middle schoolers, 110 HS students, and 110 college students.
Our Results Speak for Themselves.
99% of our high school seniors graduate and enroll in a 2- or 4-year college. 78% of our students graduate from college within 6 years, a very high success rate when compared to an 11% graduation rate among those who don’t use our program.
Our Mission
Our mission is to help students become the first in their families to graduate from college ready to pursue careers that are meaningful to them.
Middle School
Middle school students focus on applying to high schools, learning about different careers accessible with a college degree, and thinking about what it means to be a college-bound student.
High School
Students complete college preparatory coursework, and receive coaching to help them and their families through the college applications and financing process.
College & Career
Students get help accessing resources, maintaining a high level of academic performance, and exploring potential career pathways through internships, jobs, and professional networks.
