Breakthrough Greater Boston

ool Program: Students who complete Breakthrough Greater Boston’s Middle School Program enroll in the High School Program, committing to stay on the path to college and benefitting from BTGB’s support each step of the way. Students remain closely tied to the BTGB community and a college-going peer group they built in middle school. The high school program is made up of three program components: Advocacy, Summer Programming, and the College Access Program. Teacher Training Program: Breakthrough trains high-achieving high school and college students to teach in the summer and school-year sessions as part of its unique students-teaching-students model. With guidance and support from Program Directors and experienced professional Mentor Teachers, college and high-school students shoulder the responsibilities of full-time educators as they implement curricula, plan daily lessons, manage student behavior, and commit their time to helping younger students follow in their footsteps on the road to college.
