-Breakthrough Cincinnati Affirmation-

We are Breakthrough Cincinnati.  We believe in the power of young people. Through hard work, determination, and discipline, we can achieve our goals. We believe in ourselves. We are Breakthrough Cincinnati. 

 

A four year, tuition-free, year-round, academicaly challenging program, Breakthrough Cincinnati's mission is

1. To increase the educational and social opportunities for motivated, under-served middle school youth through high quality summer and school year programming, and

2. To inspire, motivate and train talented high school and college students to enter careers in education

 


"I believe that in my long years as a teacher, an educator and a superintendent of schools, that I have not seen a better program for many of our minority under-represented youth."

Ramon C. Cortines
Former Assistant Secretary of Education 


"The creative and driven atmosphere of Breakthrough is contagious. The program is academically serious, yet promotes learning in an engaging environment that compels everyone involved to give it their all".

Brice Dobler,  
Former Breakthrough Cincinnati Teacher 


 The Breakthrough formula is simple. Take a community that believes in children, add young people who will give their time to change the world, and throw in a delightful combination of kids at the most vulnerable time of their lives ~ middle school. And then, set deliriously high expectations for everyone involved ~ for the community to give more than seemed possible, for the teachers to work harder than was dreamed necessary, and for the kids to learn more than seemed available. It works. It’s wonderful. It’s Breakthrough.

Laura Noyes,
Former Director, Summerbridge Sacramento
