At Tenacity, we envision the day when every student in Boston graduates from high school and achieves post-secondary success.
We are excited about our partnership with the Boston Athletic Association! Please visit soon.
Tenacity’s mission is to enable post-secondary success by improving the scholastic, character and physical development of less advantaged youth through a combination of literacy, life skills development, family engagement, and fitness/tennis.
Offered in partnership with Boston Public Schools, Tenacity’s programs provide a Pathway to Post-Secondary Success through a combination of academic enrichment, mentoring, family engagement, and tennis/fitness coaching which together improve educational outcomes for students, increase graduation rates, and help transform the lives of the youth we serve.
Tenacity’s Pathway programs enable young people to build self-confidence and explore success as students, mentors and leaders. We open educational and career pathways that offer countless opportunities for personal, civic and professional growth. The outcomes are striking. Tenacity has maintained a 95% high school graduation rate among students who have completed our Middle School Academy, with 80% of these graduates going on to higher education. Currently, over 6,000 youth participate in Tenacity’s in-school, after school, and summer programs annually.
