About Ontario-Montclair Promise Scholars
Our early and all approach-we connect with all our kids starting in Kindergarten and continue that relationship even after high school-requires a lot of resources and partners. Every kid has the potential to succeed, and helping kids reach their goals is key in strengthening our community and a wide circle of caring and engaged adults helps make this possible.We work to increase student knowledge about college and career technical training opportunities and help them develop and act on their plans for a post-secondary education.This is achieved through in-class curriculum on college and careers starting in Kindergarten. Promise Scholars also takes all 5 th and 8 th graders on field trips to community colleges and four year universities so they can begin to envision themselves as college students. All 6 th graders participate in business leader presentations in class, where community members come speak about their path to a degree or certificate and their career. In 9 th grade we help student explore their personality strengths and career options. And 12 th graders get help with their college application and financial aid applications.We serve low income neighborhoods in Ontario and Montclair where the majority of students will be the first in their family to complete college.Website: Promisescholars.orgTwitter: Twitter.com/OntMontPS
