Dear High Jump Friends,
Welcome to the High Jump website! Since 1989, High Jump has provided innovative support to help students achieve their full academic and leadership potential. Participating in High Jump is a life changing experience for students, their families and their community. Please view our Annual Report to learn about the impact of High Jump and the outstanding outcomes from 2008.
High Jump has made it possible for over 750 deserving young students to be prepared for, and to succeed in, some of the most challenging college preparatory high school’s in the country. We are proud of the work that we do for talented middle-school children in the city of Chicago and salute the teachers, Trustees, and staff for deploying effective programs that have made High Jump what it is today.
What makes High Jump so unique? Selected students participate in a rigorous two-and one-half year course of study on Saturdays and daily during summer sessions. High Jump helps students build academic and social skills, foster self-confidence and independent thinking and gain critical information about future educational choices. High Jump is tuition-free.
We hope you enjoy learning more about High Jump. To see the impact the program has on a student’s life, click on the link below and take a virtual tour of the High Jump experience.
Sincerely,
Tasha R. Green
Executive Director
