Support High Jump
High Jump is 100% supported by private contributions. Individual giving, combined with that of foundations and corporations, enables High Jump to provide outstanding academic enrichment to students with limited family income. Your support will help Determined Learners Become Future Leaders.
The applicants I meet from the High Jump program are impressive young people. Their academic preparation and commitment to educational success sets them apart. Their readiness to invest themselves in the school community marks them as leaders.
— Cokey Evans, Middle and Upper School Admission Director, Francis W. Parker School
