Harvard-Kent Leadership and Scholarship Partnership
The Harvard-Kent Partnership helps make the dream of college a reality for children at Charlestown’s Harvard-Kent elementary school, a remarkable urban public school. Every year we award college incentive scholarships to highly motivated young students. Recipients and their families join a special club that provides educational enrichment and helps them model the qualities of aspirations and achievement for the entire school. When they graduate from Harvard-Kent, they join an older scholars club that helps guide their choices in middle school, high school, and as they look toward college.
