Summer
Programs
More than 50 percent of TN Promise students require learning support the first semester of college. With so many students needing additional support in reading, English and math, tnAchieves offers free Summer Programs designed to propel students into the first semester of college by eliminating the need for remediation and boosting confidence to reach full potential. In addition to daily instruction in reading, English and math, students participate in lunch and learn sessions that focus on leadership, community involvement and college success.
15% of students indicate they feel academically prepared for college prior to Summer Programs.
Following the program, 98% of students indicate they feel more academically prepared!
In partnership with Tennessee community colleges, we host two types of Summer Programs for academically at-risk students. These programs are offered to students who will be first-time college freshman in the fall and all programs take place the summer following high school graduation.
