Our Richmond Achievement Centers work closely with schools and community partners to provide critical academic and social-emotional tools to help our scholars thrive.
Our scholars are driven and talented. We are committed to providing them with the resources, opportunities, and encouragement they deserve so that they can become the scientists and engineers, poets and journalists, artists and titans of industry that they dream of being.
Our afterschool program for 6th-8th grade combines academic enrichment, mentoring, and social-emotional support for middle school youth in Richmond. Higher Achievement is part of the NextUp Middle School Alliance powered by the Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Richmond, the YMCA of Greater Richmond, and Higher Achievement Richmond.
