There are a large number of private school facilities that can be put to use to aid less advantaged students. We backed a program to use private school facilities for public school students in a "prep for prep" type model for an age group that had not been addressed: grades 2-8. It consists of Saturday morning classes during the academic year and a six-week summer session. As a result of the program 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.
