ALEXANDER HAMILTON SCHOLARS
Programs
Program 1 [2020]
IN THIS FIRST YEAR, WE EFFECTIVELY INTRODUCE AN EXTENSIVE AND RICH NETWORK OF SUPPORT AND PRACTICAL GUIDANCE, DESIGNED TO HELP SCHOLARS FORM A CLEAR PLAN FOR SENIOR YEAR OF HIGH SCHOOL, AND ENSURE THAT THEY ENROLL IN AND ULTIMATELY GRADUATE FROM, A COLLEGE COMMENSURATE TO THEIR GOALS, ABILITIES, AND INTERESTS. COLLEGE ADMISSIONS PROFESSIONALS HOST SESSIONS FOCUSED ON THE COLLEGE SEARCH, THE COLLEGE ESSAY, AND THE COLLEGE APPLICATION PROCESS, ALONG WITH FINANCIAL AID RESOURCES AND PROCEDURES. THIS CURRICULUM HELPS SCHOLARS MAKE DELIBERATE AND EMPOWERED DECISIONS REGARDING COLLEGE AND THE MANAGEMENT OF THE 500 HAMILTON SCHOLARSHIP, WHICH IS INTENDED TO HELP ALLEVIATE THE BURDEN OF COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH COLLEGE ENTRANCE EXAMS, APPLICATION FEES, AND OTHER COLLEGE ACCESS EXPENSES. SCHOLARS ARE ALSO MATCHED WITH INDIVIDUAL PEER AND ADULT MENTORSHIP TO HELP THEM NAVIGATE THE COLLEGE ADMISSIONS PROCESS. IN ADDITION TO ASSISTANCE WITH COLLEGE ADMISSIONS, THE COLLEGE READINESS CURRICULUM ALSO FOCUSES ON VALUES AND GUIDING PRINCIPLES. THOSE VALUES DIRECT THE CREATION OF EACH SCHOLARS' PERSONAL VISION AND MISSION STATEMENTS, FUNCTIONING AS GUIDES FOR GOAL SETTING AND MAKING TOUGH CHOICES ABOUT PERSONAL LIFE, COLLEGE, AND CAREER. SCHOLARS LEARN MORE ABOUT THEMSELVES AND BUILD THEIR FOUNDATIONS AS A LEADER OF CHARACTER.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$2.6KProgram 2 [2020]
IN YEAR 2, THROUGHOUT FRESHMAN YEAR OF COLLEGE, AHS SUPPORTS SCHOLARS WITH A CURRICULUM FOCUSED ON SPECIFIC TOOLS AND HABITS OF MIND THAT WILL HELP MAXIMIZE COLLEGE SUCCESS, IN ADDITION TO DISCUSSING SOME OF THE SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL CHANGES THAT COME WITH ENTERING COLLEGE. THE TECHNICAL SKILLS WE TEACH INCLUDE DISCUSSIONS OF CAMPUS RESOURCES, FINANCIAL AID, BUDGETING, DAY PLANNING, AND TIME MANAGEMENT. WE BELIEVE THAT EFFECTIVE TIME MANAGEMENT AND DEBT AVOIDANCE ARE ESSENTIAL TO THE SUCCESS OF COLLEGE STUDENTS. WE ALSO SPEND EXTENSIVE TIME DISCUSSING HOW TO SUCCESSFULLY IMPLEMENT THE VISION PORTFOLIO AND PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN (PDP) INTO DAILY LIFE, HOW TO BE PRESENT PURSUING AMBITIONS GOALS, AND HOW TO ACCESS RESOURCES THAT WILL SUPPORT MENTAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS. DRAWING ON THE NETWORK OF SCHOLARS THAT HAVE ALREADY EXPERIENCED FRESHMAN YEAR AS A SOURCE OF SUPPORT AND INSIGHT, AHS PROVIDES THE CONNECTION, RESOURCES, AND SUPPORT NEEDED TO THRIVE DURING THIS IMPORTANT TRANSITION TO COLLEGE.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$5.5KProgram 3 [2020]
THE THIRD-YEAR LEADERSHIP AND SERVICE CURRICULUM CONTINUES TO FOCUS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF LEADERSHIP THROUGH SERVICE, AND ALSO BEGINS TO LOOK FORWARD TO THE NEXT BIG TRANSITION: COLLEGE TO CAREER. CONFERENCE CALLS AND EXERCISES ARE DESIGNED AROUND DEVELOPING PRACTICAL SKILLS IN AREAS INCLUDING RESUME BUILDING, INTERVIEWING, NETWORKING, AND USE OF THE EMPOWERMENT TOOLKIT (VISION PORTFOLIO, PDP, AND THE ELEMENT) AS A GUIDE TO INTERNSHIP AND CAREER EXPLORATION. THESE SKILLS ASSIST SCHOLARS WITH FINDING VALUABLE INTERNSHIPS THAT ARE MEANINGFUL AND RELEVANT TO THEIR PDP, AND LAND JOBS DURING COLLEGE AND POST-GRADUATION. WE HELP SCHOLARS DEVELOP THESE SKILLS THROUGH ONE-ON-ONE RESUME REVIEWS, MOCK INTERVIEWS, AND INFORMATIVE CONFERENCE REVIEW SESSIONS. THE CURRICULUM INSTILLS PRACTICAL SKILLS AND VALUABLE PROFESSIONAL CONNECTIONS, WHILE SPENDING TIME CONTEMPLATING MORE THAN JUST WHAT SCHOLARS WANT TO DO FOR A LIVING. WE ASK THEM TO CONSIDER WHAT THEY CAN DO TO IMPACT THE WORLD AND MAKE POSITIVE CHANGE, AND TO PONDER THE QUESTION OF HOW THEY CAN USE THEIR OWN EXCEPTIONAL TALENTS TO BE OF GREATER SERVICE.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$1.5K
