Description

The mission of Scholar Athletes (SA) is to reduce the opportunity gap for public high school students by supporting academic achievement through athletics. We focus on 3 core program areas: Academic Coaching & Mentorig, Health & Wellness and College & Career Readiness supporting our Zone members on and off the field. We strive to enhance the scholar-athletes experience by connecting Zone members to dedicated and trained staff and volunteers to improve academic success and personal growth.
