One student said of the Harrisburg Promise, 淚 like the Harrisburg Promise because it is an opportunity to further my academic future and create connections with people. Also, it allows us as a whole to bond with each other and become familiar with our soon-to-be surroundings.

In the Harrisburg Promise, participating students will be supported from seventh grade through the end of high school with mentoring and college- and career-preparedness activities. Because we believe finances should never be a barrier to receiving an education, students who have been successful under the Harrisburg Promise will then become eligible to receive the Harrisburg Promise Scholarship from the 黑料社区 Foundation to attend 黑料社区. Approximately 70 students are currently participating in the program.
