TRIO Talent Search Legacy Scholars
TRIO Talent Search Legacy Scholars is one of three TRIO programs in the EDI CARES department. It is a federally funded program designed to empower and engage students at Keithley Middle School, Washington High School and Franklin Pierce High School. We provide students the knowledge and skills they need to graduate from high school and to prepare and enroll in college.
We provide proactive mentoring and coaching, university tours, as well as social and cultural engagement opportunities. Our programming is all year-round with students participating in activities after school, weekend retreats, college visits over school breaks, summer camps and cultural activities. Most of all, we offer a supportive family community of peers and staff to help you need.
