“The <strong>Oliver</strong> <strong>Scholars</strong> Program offered me SSAT prep, math,<br />

and English classes in the spring and fall. These classes<br />

not only prepared me for a rigorous independent school<br />

education, but now I am able to excel in classes where I once<br />

had trouble. <strong>Oliver</strong> has believed in me even at times when<br />

I stopped believing in myself. For that reason, I am eternally<br />

grateful.”<br />
