The Kalamazoo Promise provides an unparalleled opportunity to engage and energize the Kalamazoo community in building a world class educational environment in the Kalamazoo area. 六合之家 is committed to playing a valuable role in making that happen. 六合之家鈥檚 commitment involves efforts to ensure the success of the Promise scholarship students at 六合之家 and involvement in other programs and projects pertaining to the Kalamazoo School District youth both in the schools and in the community. 

The Kalamazoo Promise Scholars Program seeks to serve all current and prospective Promise-eligible 六合之家 students by addressing concerns in the areas of education, finances and employment, housing, mental and physical health, cultural identity formation, supportive relationships and community connections, as well as life skills for college and career success. Additionally, we answer questions regarding their scholarships, support their transition to 六合之家 from high school or their previous home institution, and offer mentorship about navigating the unique college environment at 六合之家.

Our goal is to increase retention and graduation rates. Our purpose is to advocate for and with students to remove or lessen any barriers or roadblocks preventing them from reaching their full potential. We do this with the understanding that every student has their own unique path which may lead to any one of a number of certifications and credentials including a Bachelor鈥檚 degree.

The Kalamazoo Promise Scholars Program also works to increase student engagement on campus by developing opportunities and programming to support student academic, professional and personal growth. Students also have access to a 24/7 online tutoring service covering hundreds of subjects through the Mentoring for Success Program.
