Bringing equity to education for Chicago middle grade students since 1989.
关于我们
In 1989, High Jump started with a single, mighty mission: To bring equity to education for Chicago middle grade students who have exhibited academic potential and who are of limited academic means. Today, that mission is stronger than ever. High Jump empowers Chicago’s middle schoolers to become well-rounded leaders through our tuition-free programs with one-of-a-kind experiences, resources, and educational support for curious and motivated 7th and 8th-grade students who want to challenge themselves academically.

Jessica Maria Brito, a member of High Jump's 25th cohort, is digging into team operations and trackside data in motorsports. So awesome!

Two long weeks at the Daytona International Speedway was a whirlwind of emotions. I am grateful for Wayne Taylor Racing Team allowing part of my placement year focus on team operations and trackside data. Lots of questions are being made and I can't wait to share my developments throughout the rest of the season. #IMSA #Rolex24
