EXCEL

EXCEL is a summer enrichment program designed to provide disadvantaged/underserved high school students from grades 9-12 with the opportunity to participate in challenging math, science, computer, and language arts coursework. Students are also given the opportunity to explore health career opportunities through mentoring programs and exposure to healthcare professionals.
