At BOSS, we have built the developmental infrastructure--academic support, tools, experiences, relationships, exposure, social capital and opportunities--to help our scholars discover their potential, develop the skills and behaviors to realize it, and ultimately achieve educational attainment, economic mobility and lifelong leadership.
Some BOSS facts, figures, and highlights:
- 99% of BOSS alumni are pursuing post-secondary education—at a time when three-fourths of boys in SC are exiting high school without meeting the requirements to even apply to a four-year college or university. Our scholars attend Stanford, UCLA, CSULB, San Diego State, and San Jose State, as well as HBCUs Xavier, Morehouse and Florida A&M and Howard, among other schools.
- Scholars achieve a 63% higher math proficiency and a 20% higher reading proficiency than LBUSD average.
- Developed BOSS Decision Labwhich develops judgment before real-life decisions carry consequences.
- Developed BOSS Career Navigator which turns strengths and interests into informed education and career pathways.
- Developed BOSSmatics to identify and close foundational math gaps.
