CORE VALUES
Breakthrough believes in the power of education to radically
change young peoples’ lives. We believe the middle school years are the
critical crossroads where students make choices that will dramatically
affect their futures. We are passionate in our belief that every child
deserves access to an excellent education and the encouragement to succeed.
Breakthrough celebrates
excellence and abhors mediocrity. The spirit of celebration is energetic,
enthusiastic, and contagious. Young people who would ordinarily downplay
their interest in academics discover that not only is it “cool to be smart,”
but that learning is fun.
WHAT MAKES BREAKTHROUGH SPECIAL
Breakthrough is unique in that it has a dual mission: improving the
educational trajectory of underserved middle school students and inspiring
young people to enter the field of education. Breakthrough’s success is due
to a unique combination of elements that result in an exciting and energetic
educational experience:
-
Motivated students who are at the critical age when they are searching for role
models and making choices that will dramatically affect their futures.
-
Enthusiastic and
talented teachers who serve as mentors and role models and bring to life
the idea that “it’s cool to be smart.”
-
An academically rigorous
program supplemented by creative arts, multicultural programs, and
public speaking opportunities.
-
An infectious spirit of
fun and a celebration of excellence.
