This is the power of community. This is the realization of dreams. This is the Class of 2021.
We are thrilled to announce (for the third year in a row!) that 100% of the seniors in our high school program graduated from high school! We tip our hats and cheer a little extra for the Class of 2021. They have not only overcome trauma and barriers but also a global pandemic.
The 49ers Academy surrounded our high school graduates with individualized, targeted support throughout middle school and high school. This support included:
- Case management through mentorship
- Family Empowerment
- Academic Success
- Enrichment Opportunities
- Community Engagement
- Social-Emotional Learning
Their success is possible because of you. You are an essential part of these graduation celebrations. With your support, our students have more opportunities and a brighter future.
Thank you to the 49ers Academy for motivating me to graduate. This past year has been really rough. Without the 49ers Academy's support, I wouldn't be who I am today."
-Â Fatima, Class of 2021
While we have made some great strides, the 49ers Academy still has a lot to accomplish. East Palo Alto’s graduation rate has historically hovered around 50%. There are so many more students that need our services.
