Academic Summer Session
Cincinnati is a vibrant community striving for even better quality of life and economic mobility
for all people. Research has shown that higher levels of education reduce chances of
unemployment and attaining a college degree increases the likelihood that an individual will
move up the socioeconomic ladder.
Breakthrough Cincinnati is playing an important role in reducing educational disparities by
offering academic enrichment to motivated underrepresented students. Breakthrough
Cincinnati intervenes just before middle school … a time of tremendous academic,
developmental, and social change for young people. This is a critical period during which
students are either launched on the path to high school graduation and college success or they
are knocked off track. Breakthrough Cincinnati’s six-week summer and year-round academic
enrichment offer a caring community where “it’s cool to be smart.” Students thrive in the
program, known to be a “safe haven” for students who are motivated to succeed, yet are often
overlooked and at risk of underperforming to their full potential. 93% of Breakthrough
Cincinnati students graduate on time from high school and enter college with confidence. Over
half attend college in the tri-state area and are likely to return as a talented and diverse cadre
of contributors to our great community.
