Our Counseling Department has planned a Virtual Town Hall for 10th Grade male Curie students of color and their parents. The Virtual Town Hall will be an information session for interested and recommended male students and their parents to learn and ask questions about "The Fellowship Initiative (TFI)" program. Please use this link to recommend 10th-grade male Curie students of color.
Wednesday, May 5, 2021 at 4pm.
The Fellowship Initiative (TFI) is a partnership between Youth Guidance and JPMorgan Chase designed to expand economic opportunities for young men of color. We are building a diverse community that develops a pipeline of young men of color, from across Chicago, who excel academically, graduate high school, persist in college and are equipped to lead change in their communities. This program is designed to support fellows in expanding the skills, knowledge, experience, networks, and other resources they need to succeed academically and professionally.
