"Since the pandemic, Boston Beyond has been a great support for the Bridge to Calculus and Bridge to Science programs. Their generous grants have helped BtC/BtS positively impact the lives of over 400+ students from Boston Public Schools." We are a proud partner of @nu_btc at @northeastern. From calculus and science to bridging math and culture, they’re creating opportunities that matter.

“I can tell you definitively, schools can’t do it by themselves,” said Education Secretary Patrick Tutwiler, standing on an East Boston dock after a sailing tour of the Harbor on Tuesday. “We need great after school programs. We need great summer programming, and this is it. And this is more than just a landing space for kids. This is an intentional, thoughtful program that helps them better envision the lives they want for themselves.” #Beyond20 #SummerforAll #AfterSchoolMatters #BostonBeyond

From the classroom to the harbor, learning never stops. 🌊 Secretary Tutwiler visited East Boston’s Piers Park Sailing Center, where out-of-school time programs give students the skills + confidence that set them up for college and success — all year round. 🏫

"After participating in Beantown Panthers, youth have shown increased confidence, stronger communication skills, and a greater sense of purpose. We've seen students who were once disengaged step into leadership roles, advocate for themselves, and build meaningful relationships with peers and mentors... One student shared that our program was the first place they felt truly seen, and that feeling of being valued made all the difference. These moments are the real success stories: small shifts that spark lasting growth." This is why we do what we do. We are proud to support programs like @beantownpanthers ! #Beyond20 #OutOfSchoolTime #YouthDevelopment #SummerforAll #AfterSchoolMatters #BostonBeyond

"Boston After School & Beyond has been an unwavering advocate for the work we do. They don’t just acknowledge the importance of expanded learning, they fight for it. Their leadership in securing funding streams has played a vital role in helping us sustain and grow our programming. They understand, deeply, the complex challenges that come with serving youth and families in the city, and they strive to be a strong, consistent voice at the table of advocacy. Beyond funding, their commitment to capacity building is evident. The free and low-cost training opportunities they provide for our staff have been incredibly valuable, helping us strengthen our team, deepen our impact, and stay grounded in best practices. Their support has made a real difference in our ability to serve our community with excellence." - @freedomhouse Thank you, Freedom House, for all that you do for Boston's youth! #Beyond20 #SummerforAll #OutofSchoolTime #AfterschoolMatters #SummerLearning

Summer learning works — and it’s time we invest in it. We're proud to see our Executive Director, Chris Smith, featured in The 74: “Summer learning arguably has the greatest impact at the lowest price on the greatest number of students of any policy solutions.” We’re grateful for the opportunity to advocate for expanded access and public investment in programs that make a real difference for Boston’s youth. 📚☀️ #SummerforAll #Beyond20 #BostonBeyond #OutOfSchoolTime #SummerLearning #ExpandedLearning Link to Full Article: the74million.org/article/from-c…
