The Partnership to Educate and Advance Kids (PEAK's) mission is to provide opportunities for underserved youth to achieve academic and personal success by combining a four-year quality, values-based high school education with the guidance and commitment of caring, adult mentors.Each PEAK scholar is paired with an adult mentor who guides them throughout their high school experience. Our mentors spend face time with their mentees every month, keep in regular communication, and join their mentee at several PEAK mentor/scholar enrichment outings held each year.There are currently 32 PEAK scholars and an alumni network of over 250. PEAK scholars also work with an adult mentor from the business community for all four years of high school. Our goal is for our scholars to graduate high school prepared to enroll in college, trade school, or to pursue gainful employment.PEAK scholars are a diverse group of 13-18 year olds primarily from the West and South sides of Chicago. They are average academic achievers with a potential for success in a nurturing academic environment. PEAK has provided scholarships and mentoring services to over 250 underserved youth in the Chicago community since its mission began in 1998.
