About us

Beacon Academy offers a 10-year program that prepares highly motivated students from communities with limited resources for competitive high schools, colleges, and careers. Our goal is to support students as they create life-changing opportunities and build fulfilling careers. Beacon makes a long-term commitment and investment to its students because we believe education is a crucial vehicle to achieving this goal. In an effort to close the opportunity gap that exists for students of color from economically constrained backgrounds, our staff members and broader Beacon community commit to supporting each student for 10+ years with a focus on their educational success and well-being. With academic resources and support from the Beacon community, Beacon students explore their intellectual curiosity, affirm their racial and cultural identity, build their confidence, and discover the power of their voice.

    Beacon Academy Class of 2025 has been busy and productive! They recently took part in mock interviews with representatives from different independent schools. It was a great way for them to get a feel for what the real interviews will be like. To help them get ready for their interviews, we organized a mini Swap-It event for the students. It was fun to see them pick out interview outfits that really showed off their personalities and made them feel confident. We are deeply grateful to the school partners who participated in the mock interview workshop. Our heartfelt thanks also go out to all the Swap-It volunteers who donated items, assisted in setting up, and helped the students as personal shoppers. Our community's support is invaluable to us. Thank you all for being so amazing!
