Nationwide, student ambition is high: in our surveys of 270,000 students last year, 89% said they want to attend college — but only 38% were enrolled in college-prep coursework.

What’s behind this ambition-access gap in advanced academic pathways, and how can educators close it?

Last year, EOS piloted a program to identify motivated middle school students and enroll them in advanced courses like Algebra 1 and Pre-AP, placing them in postsecondary pathways early on.

Our team recently gathered to share insight from our pilot, and align on a plan to enhance our tools to better support students and teachers as we expand into middle schools nationwide this year.

Aaron Cruz, a ninth-grade guidance counselor at Pelham Preparatory Academy in The Bronx, was named as a trusted adult by many students on our student surveys.

One of those students is Luis Ortiz, who Cruz met as an incoming freshman and has mentored into a student leader with EOS' RISE (Re-Imagining Student Engagement) program.

An outstanding educator makes each of their students feel seen, valued, and supported – fostering their growth as scholars and as people.

Tommye Staton of Myers Park HS in Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools is one of those educators. But don’t take our word for it – hear from Madison, one of her AP African American Studies students, about Staton's impact on her academic experience.

Staton is part of our A4EHG cohort, a grant-funded initiative helping AP U.S. History and Government teachers create belonging-rich classrooms.

Know a teacher making a difference? Nominate them for the cohort today: https://eoschools.org/eos-in-schools/expanding-opportunity-in-ap-history-and-government/?utm_source=meta&utm_medium=social-organic&utm_term=general&utm_content=a4ehg-post-taw2&utm_campaign=a4ehg-promo
