Read Ahead
TBAA cohort of students will dedicate an hour of their lunch time to mentor and advise a student at PS 67, only 10 minutes away from campus. The students at PS 67 are middle school aged and excited to have a college-aged mentor they can be with weekly for an hour. 77% of children in NYC’s chronically under-resourced public schools come from low-income communities. Our mentors’ critical one on one attention gives children the confidence, motivation, and skills to succeed.
