High School Scholarships
Many Tutoring students reside in neighborhoods where the local high schools are often struggling and may have graduation rates as low as 50%. High School Scholarships enable Tutoring students to attend Chicago-area private and parochial high schools, with graduation rates near 100%. Attending good high schools position students to graduate with the skills necessary for college acceptance.Congratulations to nine Tutoring students who will receive scholarships and become Chicago Lights Scholars in the fall!

Chicago Lights has allowed both of us to share the gifts we have been so blessed with while gaining new perspective on the challenges our community faces." |
