Program Description

The Tag You’re It (TYI) Program focuses on mentorship, with an emphasis on guiding our scholars to maximizing their potential. We offer an extensive network of connections to professionals (Doctors, Lawyers, College Students, etc.). The TYI Program targets high-school juniors and seniors. We will engage entirely virtual on Zoom.

Duration

  • Throughout junior/ senior year(s) of high-school

TYIP supports its scholars upon matriculating into their post-secondary education institutions. Scholars will have support through their junior and senior years of high-school. Even after entering high-school, scholars still have the TYIP team apart of their lifetime network. Scholars join a unique and robust family where they expected to contribute and give back to the next generation of leaders.
