Rainier Scholars
Rainier Scholars is a long-term college readiness program for underrepresented students of color in the Tacoma community. They recruit in 4th grade, start working with students and families the summer before 5th grade, and walk alongside them through college completion with the goal of graduating with minimal debt. Rainier Scholars is currently looking for 7th graders to enter their program as well.
