To be eligible for the Higher Achievement Program, a student must meet the following requirements:
-
Willing to commit 650 hours per year for 3-4 years in the program
-
Be in 5th – 8th grade (most new scholars are rising 5th and 6th grade students)
-
Live or attend school in Washington, DC or the City of Alexandria.
There are several required steps to enroll a student in the program.
-
Review the three parts of our program if you haven’t already done so. It is critical that every family and student understands all three elements of Higher Achievement because participation in all three is required.
-
Submit an application online, via fax, or through the mail.
-
Schedule an interview to be considered for the program. During the interview, we assess a student’s talents and areas of challenge and his or her willingness to commit to our program. Consideration for Higher Achievement is not solely based on standardized test scores and grades; commitment to our rigorous, multi-year program is also an important factor.
