The Temple Future Scholars program is a scaled college pipeline program that supports low-income, first-generation–to-college students in Philadelphia public middle schools. It is structured to provide comprehensive support to seventh-grade students, guiding them through their academic journey from middle school to college. A partnership between Heights, Temple University, and the School District of Philadelphia, Temple Future Scholars is launching with 120 seventh-grade students in the following seven middle schools, six of which are Heights’ partner schools:
Mary McLeod Bethune School
Morton McMichael School
Paul L. Dunbar School
Russell H. Conwell School
Tanner G. Duckrey School
John F. Hartranft School
Juniata Park Academy
The program aims to add 200 students each year, and eventually welcome 1,200 students in seventh grade to 12th grade in the following years.
