Build, Learn, Grow Summer Scholarship
Many students lost valuable instructional education time during the COVID-19 pandemic. To ensure that students are ready to learn during the 2022-2023 academic year, we have created a new Build, Learn, Grow Scholarship program for children of essential workers.
BLG Summer Scholarships will cover up to 80% of a school-age child's summer program tuition. We encourage summer programs to utilize the Build, Learn, Grow Summer Scholarship program to increase student recruitment and retention.
