STEP Visit

Across Henninger, Nottingham, and Syracuse Academy of Science schools, we had 39 graduates in the class of 2021. These students applied to over 50 colleges locally and out of state. So far, our students have been accepted to over 25 colleges and they are all still making final admissions discussions. In addition, 16 seniors are enrolled in 65 SUAP, AP, OCC or SUNY ESF courses this year. We are so proud of our students and are continuing to support them to reach their goals and beyond.

For the 2021-2022 academic year we are serving over 112 students. During the first marking period of the 2021-2022 academic year, our STEP scholars completed over 13,980 hours of tutoring, 6,705 hours of advising, and 13,490 hours of independent study in our STEP spaces.
