At LEAP, we believe that high school students should begin thinking about and preparing early for the transition to college. Our high school students, called College Prep Scholars, complete a development program intended to ensure they graduate high school and matriculate to a four- or two-year college. Throughout the school year, CPS's participate in SAT-preparation courses, college essay workshops, and interveiw skill workshops.
LEAP is an academic and social enrichment program for children and youth, ages 7 to 23. Our mission is to develop the strengths and talents of young leaders who create and implement year-round, community-based programs designed to achieve positive academic and social outcomes for children living in high poverty urban neighborhoods. LEAP is an AmeriCorps Program.
