Video: Access Opportunity
Here is a video about the ACCESS Opportunity (and yes, it was filmed at WHS!)
Access Opportunity supports high-achieving students from low-income households for six years, following a selective admissions process in the spring of 10th grade. Our students are ambitious, community-minded young leaders who hope to use their education in order to make change in their communities. The ultimate goal of Access Opportunity is to help our students, their families, and their communities reach their full potential.

Recruitment for 10th graders generally starts in the fall and is announced through WPS student email. Please feel free to reach out to the Future Center with questions!
