Black is Excellence
There are very few people that make it in the world without the help of others. As the Black community continues to adapt and move forward, we want to make sure that no one is being left behind. The Tag You’re It Program (TYIP) is a flexible yet structured program that gives young students support in reaching a post secondary educational institution. We know that our scholars will excel in a myriad of ways and want to be able to provide them with the resources and knowledge they do not have access to. We mean it when we say “Tag You Are it” because you will change the world; however, we also mean it in a literal sense. Just as we have helped our scholars in their journey, we expect them to do the same. That is why “you are it” and you must tag other people below you, helping them up the ladder of success. We know that you will be agents to changing the world, and we want to do everything in our power as your mentors and peers to elevate you to the next level.
