                            History

                            Breakthrough, formerly Summerbridge, was established in 1995 as a program housed at Kent Denver School; the first summer session began with eighteen teachers in training, who served a class of forty-six middle school students. Since 1995, our dual mission of training teachers and serving motivated middle school students has remained the same. In the process, we have served more than nine hundred students and four hundred eighty high school and college-age faculty.
