Misión

In 1989, High Jump started with a single, mighty mission:

To bring equity to education for Chicago middle grade students who have exhibited academic ambition and potential and who are of limited economic 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.
