College & Career Readiness Hybrid Program

What We Do

Since it’s inception in 2012, Scholar CC College and Career Readiness After-School Program has aspired to prepare and inspire students to pursue an education beyond high school. Whether higher education, community college, technical schools, entrepreneurship, apprenticeships, or the military.

Students with adults in their lives who have gone through the process of applying to college or technical school have support in navigating the education system. Yet many students who are new to the US or from families who lack information about college or career pathways—struggle.Our goal is to ensure that students who have completed our program are prepared exceptionally well for the college process and the workforce.

College and Career Readiness Club

  • Group mentoring 
  • Scholarship assistance 
  • Standardized testing and college admission fee waivers
  • FAFSA assistance 
  • SAT Tutoring 
  • Soft Skills Training
  • Workshops on Financial Literacy, College Housing, DACA, College Admissions and more
  • Mock Interviews

In addition, we bring outside professionals and motivational speakers to share inspiring stories and to provide important community resources to our students. 

Virtual Sessions

Our online sessions are an extension of our After School Club. Virtual sessions allow us to reach students across the district! Students can log-in to attend weekly SAT tutoring or College and Career Workshops. Virtual mentees also have the opportunity to be matched with a mentor. 

Group Mentoring

The program is also designed to give students the opportunity to be mentored by passionate mentors (college and career readiness coaches) who share similar academic and career interests. Students also receive one-on-one and group support from Scholar CC program staff, contract teachers, and community services.
