Successful Student Transitions

Promise envisions every child who attends a school in the neighborhood is prepared to enter their designated grade level each year. Promise partners are working together to bring that vision to life.

Promise Scholars

Since 2019, Promise has presented scholarships and laptops to East Tech graduating seniors who reside within the neighborhood's footprint. Scholarships are awarded regardless of post-secondary pathway, and Promise partners at CollegeNow Greater Cleveland engage the recent graduates in summer programming that assists with both academic transition and career searching.
