Mission

We prepare students with the academic skills, strength of character, and emotional well-being to excel in high school and college.

Activities

The High School Program is a year-round college readiness program for grades 9-12 that focuses on college preparation and admissions. The program starts with early college awareness that culminates in a full range of support for college students to ensure they graduate on time. Scholars take classes that boost writing and science skills, SAT test-preparation, assistance with the college application process, financial aid coordination, mentoring, and counseling. After graduation, high school scholars transition into the College Scholars Program and receive a full range of support to ensure college graduation.

Qualified scholars have the opportunity to participate in paid internships at EHTP, where they gain valuable work experience supporting our teaching and administrative staff.

Media Studies
Through an immersive curriculum with Tribeca Teaches, high school scholars learn the art of film-making. The culminating projects are screened at the annual Tribeca Film Festival. Scholars also produce a public access television show for Manhattan Neighborhood Network.
