Who We Are
Breakthrough Kent Denver is a tuition free, educational non-profit program working in conjunction with Denver Public Schools and Kent Denver School to provide increased educational opportunities for under-resourced middle school students from Denver public middle schools. We also train and encourage talented high school and college students to enter careers in urban education.
Breakthrough strives to provide students and teachers the tools and support necessary to facilitate their highest level of achievement. Breakthrough’s objective for the middle school students we serve is to measure academic success by achieving near one hundred percent high-school graduation rates and college enrollment, a statistic that far exceeds our students’ peer group. Additionally, Breakthrough’s intention in training college age students in teaching methodology is to create a pipeline leading to careers in education, following college graduation.
