Summer on the Hill

To mobilize the large number of private school facilities to assist less advantaged students, the Foundation backed a program to use private school facilities for public school students in a "prep for prep" model for grades 2-8, an age group that had been previously unaddressed. The program conducts morning classes on Saturdays during the academic year and a six-week summer session. As a result, hundreds of alumni have been placed in superior public and private schools. Summer on the Hill is now an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with substantial support from other foundations.
