As we gear up for another exciting academic year, the Promise Scholars team is thrilled to welcome our students, parents, and school partners back to school. The upcoming year will be filled with new opportunities to continue our mission to empower every student to achieve their college and career goals.
As we prepare for the new year, we want to acknowledge our gratitude to all of our supporters for making last year an incredible success and for continuing to provide support for this upcoming year and beyond.
Stay tuned for updates, stories of success, and opportunities to get involved this year. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of our Ontario-Montclair School District students and their families.
Here’s to a fantastic school year ahead!
The Promise Scholars Team
We were honored to participate in Kingsley, Bon View, Vineyard, Del Norte, Berlyn, Edison, and Mariposa’s Back to School Nights. We also joined AEC Family Night, Chaffey, Montclair, and Ontario’s Back to School Nights, Montclair High School’s Coffee with the Principal and Student Services Fair, and Ontario High School’s College Night.
We even hosted Skills Assessment Activities for our 9th Grade Scholars at Ontario High School, showing students the importance of skills when determining college majors and careers.
We are thrilled to introduce the Opportunity Scholarship for the Class of 2027! This exciting opportunity is available to students at Chaffey, Ontario, and Montclair High Schools.
The scholarship is a 9-step program, where students have the chance to win $500 at each step. Complete all 9 steps, and you’ll be in the running for a grand prize of $15,000! Each step is crafted to support students on their path to college admission, requiring only proof of completion submitted through Canvas.
