Enrichment

Access provides a selection of over 80 after-school enrichment programs to challenge students in important STEM subjects like robotics, coding, and computer science, as well as in key areas such as leadership and character development, entrepreneurship, and languages.
Counseling

Counseling is the cornerstone of our program. Starting in 6th grade and continuing through college, our Graduate Support Directors build strong, enduring relationships with each student, providing individualized mentoring, guidance, and advocacy at every step of their 11+ year educational journey.
Scholarships

Access invests over $675,000 annually in scholarships so our students can attend one of 25 local, college-preparatory private high schools. In addition, we manage a Work-Study program so our high school and college students can earn money toward their education while giving back to the community.
