We emphasize the importance of character and academics to the achievement of success in school and life. We try to encourage boys to develop the habits which lead to achievement. We work as teachers, mentors and tutors to facilitate the skills necessary to succeed at learning. Finally, we seek to inspire boys to pursue college graduation as a realistic goal by showing them pathways to college. We believe in the words of Martin Luther King Jr. that the true goal of education is “intelligence plus character.”

    Our goal is to provide pathways, programs, enrichment, inspiration, resources and support to boys in 5th – 8th grade, leading to academic and social success.
