Through a diverse set of programs and initiatives, Brown’s students, faculty and staff help equip participating Providence high school students with the academic and problem-solving skills they need to prepare for careers and college.
During the academic year, student volunteers provide one-on-one tutoring to city high school students, helping them hone their math and reading skills in the classroom, prepare for SATs and submit college applications. Elsewhere, Brown faculty and students work with Providence public high school teachers to introduce robotics and environmental science curricula to high school classrooms, inspiring local teens to consider careers in emerging STEM fields.
