We are looking for adults, college students, and high school students, to volunteer in our after-school program with our academically motivated 5th-8th grade students with limited educational opportunities.

Mission Statement
Breakthrough supports young people in San Francisco on the path to college, and trains the next generation of educators.
Description
At Breakthrough, we believe all young people should have access to an excellent education, a clear pathway to college, and highly effective teachers committed to their success. In pursuit of this vision, we provide intensive, year-round academic enrichment and support to motivated 5-12th graders with limited educational opportunities, helping them attend college, as well as ongoing college persistence support support. In addition, we train outstanding college students from across the country for education careers: developing their instructional skills, building their knowledge of pathways to teaching, and inspiring them to work in the field.
We're proud that 100% of students in our first six graduating classes are currently enrolled in college, including 93% at four-year schools. Meanwhile, 47% of our Teaching Fellows who've graduated from college in the past decade are currently working in the education sector, most of them as urban public school teachers. We are an initiative of SF Day School, a K-8 independent school that values increasing opportunity for all students, and one of 25 national affiliates of Breakthrough Collaborative.
