The Summit:

Impact host an Annual Summit at the Tinley Park Convention Center the last Saturday in July. The event is from 12 Noon-3 pm and has 3 parts: College Panel, Engagement Speakers and College/Community Resource Exhibit. Local high school students and their parents attend for free but must register at www.impactccrn.com/student-registration.

To date the summit has served over 1500 local high school students and their parents. We expect this year to be the largest event yet. The venue seats a thousand people. Many parents are planning their summer vacations now. We would like to get the information to them as soon as possible.

The 5K District Initiative:
Each year Impact shares college readiness information and resources with junior level students in six Chicago area high schools – Rich Central, Rich East and Rich South are among the high schools served www.impactccrn.com/5k-district-initiative

Junior level students learn about the college selection, admission and financial aid process. The Illinois Student Assistance Commission has partnered with Impact to share financial resources with students.

To date the 5K District Initiative has served over 10,000 Junior level students.
